DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—Hennepin County, Minnesota, fired an election worker who left several boxes of mail-in ballots unattended after a local GOP group exposed the alleged negligence, according to a statement from county officials released Friday. Minnesota Senate District 50 Republicans—the Republican Party’s official political unit for portions of Minnesota cities Edina and Bloomington—snapped a photo outside of Edina City Hall Friday showing a courier vehicle’s “rear door ajar with ballot transfer cases inside.” A review of parking lot surveillance footage found the ballots were not tampered with, and a comparison of the votes with the statewide voter registration system for absentee ballots found a perfect match. “Hennepin County acknowledges that this lapse in protocol occurred, should not have happened, and is unacceptable,” the county’s statement reads. “Corrective actions have been taken by the county and its courier to prevent any recurrence. The county has confirmed the driver has been terminated.” Do these ballots look secure to you?

Critics of mail-in voting have raised concern regarding ballot delivery, with the National Association of State Election Directors and other officials writing a letter to the U.S. Postal Service Postmaster in September flagging potential challenges such as processing delays, lost or delayed election mail, and insufficient training. “Election security is of utmost importance, and leaving ballots unattended is simply unacceptable,” Hennepin County Auditor Daniel Rogan said in the county’s statement regarding Friday’s incident. “Hennepin County is reinforcing its transfer protocols with county staff and vendors. An incident like this underscores the value of strong chain-of-custody processes, so that risk can be addressed and integrity can be verified.” Hennepin County and the Minnesota Senate District 50 Republicans did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

They put a kitten found in an engine compartment with a crew of orange cats, and the cutest thing followed. Penny @fosterkittenhqAbout a month ago, Tails High, an animal rescue, took in a litter of five orange tabbies who had been born outdoors. They were skinny and in need of TLC.Penny Richards, a foster volunteer, welcomed them into her care and got right to work. "Some of them had eyes that were stuck shut. They were much smaller than your typical five-week-old kittens, and the girls, in particular, were very bony," Penny shared with Love Meow."Thankfully, they were all great eaters, so within a few days, they had already started to fill out." Tails HighWith attentive care and treatment, their eyes cleared up, and their bodies healed. "All of them were a little shy on their first night, but by the morning, they were ready for snuggles."The orange kittens, named after game consoles, came out of their shells as soon as they felt a pep in their step. Penny @fosterkittenhqOne after another, they ventured outside their comfy nest to explore their surroundings. With their personalities emerging, their orange spirits roared to life."Vectrex immediately stood out as a very gentle, sweet boy who just wanted to be held. Atari (the sickest upon arrival) was the first to show her fun personality as she bounced around, and soon everyone followed suit." Penny @fosterkittenhq"They are a playful group but are very sweet kittens with the most gentle souls."Around that time, Penny was contacted about a little kitten found in a car's engine compartment. The kitten had been brought into foster care as a lonesome orphan and desperately needed new friends. SubaruPenny @fosterkittenhqSubaru, named after the car he was found in, arrived at Penny's home with a ton of energy, a love for attention, and a very squeaky meow."He absolutely loves to run all over and pounce on everything as he plays. He's only a little younger (than the console kittens), but the extra floof makes Subaru the same size as his friends." Penny @fosterkittenhqWhile Subaru patiently waited in the room next door, the orange crew went about their day, eating, playing, and hogging their foster mom's lap.After about ten days of ensuring he was healthy, Subaru was ready to meet the feline crew. Top: Sega, Atari, PlayStation; middle: Vectrex; bottom: NintendoPenny @fosterkittenhqHe was embraced by the orange tabbies, finding comfort in their furry midst, fitting in so well as if he'd always been part of their litter."The console kittens immediately accepted him as their new brother, and Nintendo would follow him everywhere. Nintendo is a sweet little boy who just loves to make new friends. Little Subaru was so happy to have a new family." They immediately accepted Subaru into their crewPenny @fosterkittenhq"They love jumping on one another and wrestling each other. They also love nothing more than piling up on my lap together as they purr and nap. Just like the consoles they are named after, these kittens provide hours of fun and games."Subaru is thrilled to have five new siblings to keep him busy. He's constantly on the move, running and tumbling until he's completely worn out. Penny @fosterkittenhq"Whenever I enter their room, I am met with a chorus of purrs. All six of these kittens (especially the gingers) are huge cuddlers and will hop on my lap as soon as I sit down." Penny @fosterkittenhqSubaru has found his place within the clowder. Having other kittens around gives him a sense of belonging and joy that he's never felt before.He is a little dynamo, zooming around, pouncing on others, and climbing anything he can, especially his foster mom's legs. "Good thing he's really a sweet little guy under all that floof." Penny @fosterkittenhqShare this story with your friends.
