ELKINS, W.Va. — A West Virginia postal carrier pleaded guilty Thursday to altering mail-in requests for absentee voter ballots.
Thomas Cooper entered the plea in federal court in Elkins to attempted election fraud and injury to the mail, U.S. Attorney Bill Powell said in a statement.
Cooper was charged in May after eight mail-in requests for absentee voter ballots had their party affiliations altered.

If we either side is going to rely on anecdotal claims like this, then we need to either have EVERYONE vote in person, so no military mail in ballots. Trump cannot mail in. Disabled people must appear in person, etc.
Or, in the alternative, we should come up with a way, with lots of verification, to allow people to vote electronically. You can access your tax records that way, and pay your taxes that way. You can look at your social security status that way. Certainly, there must be a way that voting could be set up to be done electronically and with confidence.
Trump cannot claim that any result unfavorable to him was caused by mail in voting fraud if in the meantime he has done nothing to allow verified electronic voting.
Then Trump has to say it: No military voting. Disabled people cannot vote.
He cannot have this both ways. He cannot decry mail in voter fraud as the reason he might lose, without any evidence it is significant in any way, but also allow mail in voting for himself and the military.
