I received the information below from one of our neighbors. Stolen mail is a chronic problem these days.

I found both my mailbox and the neighbor’s open last Sunday morning after forgetting to get my mail on Saturday evening (10/16).  A package was likely stolen as Amazon stated it was delivered but we didn’t receive it.  We reported it with the USPS.  I just recognized this evening that Val and I didn’t receive our voting ballots for the upcoming election.  After looking it up, I find they were sent out on Friday 10/15 (the day before).  Now I suspect that maybe someone was collecting ballots for nefarious reasons.

I thought I might inform you as this might have happened to others in the neighborhood and folks might not recognize the didn’t get their ballot until it was too late to vote.  I sent an email to the Pierce County election office for guidance and then navigated to the  https://voter.votewa.gov/WhereToVote.aspx   site to check my voting status.  I was able to have a new ballot mailed to me from that site (in the location where you view your voting status).  Hopefully I will have more information by tomorrow (Friday).  I’ll let you know if I receive more information.
