Video: California woman’s completed mail-in ballot accidentally sent to Utah

WEST HAVEN, Davis County — A California mail-in ballot has traveled over 1,400 miles, including a stop in Utah, to be counted in next week’s election.

It was mailed from a home in South Lake Tahoe, California. Beverly Delos Reyes signed it last Thursday and it was supposed to go to the voter registrar’s office in Placerville, California.

After she stuck the ballot in the mail, it was postmarked the same day in Reno, but somehow it ended up over 700 miles away at Leland Neil’s office in West Haven, Utah. “That’s what got me,” Neil said. “I was looking on the front and it says, ‘Placerville, California’ and I was like, ‘How’d it get to Utah?’ ”

It turns out the ballot had somehow traveled across parts of three states and ended up in the pile of mail delivered to his workplace two days ago. Read more
