The Cleveland mailing company that botched the first 95,000 Summit County absentee ballots earlier this month mailing them out up to six days late botched a second batch of 14,000-15,000 ballots that were supposed to be mailed last week.
Midwest Direct which flew a banner this summer supporting the most vocal critic of voting by mail, President Donald Trump last week told Summit County election officials that it could turn around the smaller batch of ballots in 48 hours.
Summit County provided Midwest Direct the information for the ballots on Tuesday, Oct. 13; 48 hours passed, and nothing was mailed. The company then said there were more delays and it would mail them Monday, said Bill Rich, chairman of the Summit County Board of Elections (BOE).
