In another “weird” coincidence over 60,000 mail-in ballots were never sent in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, a place that President Trump won in 2016 by over 30 points.
The ballots which were supposed to be sent out to voters last week, never arrived.
Breaking: nearly 60,000 mail in ballots for voters in Westmoreland county were supposed to be mailed out on Tuesday but election officials discovered today they were never sent. Contractor responsible for mailing them says they will go out tomorrow. Details tonight at 11 #wpxi

Certain this was just a snafu, or just an honest mistake.

After all why would Democrats want to manipulate or mess with the vote in a Trump heavy county in an important swing state?

County officials blamed the lost ballots on an independent contractor responsible for distributing the ballots, saying that the ballots were not lost — rather, they were never sent out. The officials stated that the issue was resolved, and that ballots should begin being sent out Friday morning, but did not state when the process would be completed by or when they expected to be all caught up. They only said that they expected Mid-West Direct (the vendor) to be able to get through the backlog over the weekend, and for the process to run smoothly from that point forward.
We all know that, if this were a Democrat-heavy county, this would have made national news. Trump won Pennsylvania by about 45,000 votes in 2016, so a 60,000-vote, alleged mistake could decide the outcome of the election for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. There should be more scrutiny placed on the mail vendor, Mid-West Direct, to ascertain exactly what may have led to the problem in the first place. It is not clear if Mid-West Direct only processes the ballots for mailing as provided by the county or whether or not they produce ballots and mail them from data provided from the county.
It seems that Westmoreland County is not the only county in the state having issues with mail-in voting:

Also it appears there are issues in another important swing state, this time the State of Ohio:

Weirdly, Democrat candidate for President Joe Biden is now claiming that the only way he could possibly lose the election is if the Trump campaign cheats.

Via the Daily Mail:
Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden said on Saturday ‘the only way’ he could lose to President Donald Trump was through ‘chicanery’ at poling places.
‘Here’s the deal guys, you’ve gotta make sure you go out and vote, because the only way we lose this is by the chicanery going on relative to polling places,’ Biden said on Saturday at a campaign event in Erie, Pennsylvania.
Biden accused Trump of ‘trying to put people in polling places. The same guys you saw standing, blocking people’s way in Virginia with banners and rifles slung across their shoulders.’

To me it sounds like Democrats are setting the stage for more violence should President Trump win the election in just a few short weeks.
