Mason — A Michigan resident’s apparent joke showing disdain for voting by mail is no laughing matter for one election official.The resident put a toilet on their lawn with a sign that says, "Place mail in ballots here."
Barb Byrum, the Democratic clerk of Ingham County, filed a complaint with police over the display, saying it could mislead people who aren’t familiar with the voting system.
"It is a felony to take illegal possession of an absentee ballot," Byrum said Friday.
"Elections in this country are to be taken seriously and there are many people who are voting by mail for the first time this election," she said.
Police told the AP that the complaint is being investigated.
We'll get back to you when we can, says the police. Note the Recall Whitmer signs in the guy's yard also. Probably a Trumper.
