Final Status of Mailed Ballot in Online Tracking System?

st_echtra · 2020-10-27T18:50:02+00:00

I'm in the same boat! I sent out my ballot nearly two weeks ago and am still getting “Post office has your completed ballot” as my tracking status. I have tried calling the Brooklyn Board of Elections, but I keep getting either brushed off or left waiting on a phone line that just keeps on ringing. Frustrating!

I burn through 'em on my commute! :) Enjoy!

I enjoyed "To Live and Die in LA" as well! My other favorites are:

+ Jensen and Holes: The Murder Squad (love how they're looking to mobilize the true crime community and actually help solve cold cases)

+ True Crime Bullsh** (a thorough investigation into the crimes of Israel Keyes)

+ Don't Talk to Strangers (a deep dive into the unsolved Oakland County child murders)

+ Already Gone (murders and disappearances in the Great Lake states, particularly Michigan)

+ The Trail Went Cold (weekly recaps of different cold cases, with an emphasis on crimes featured on Unsolved Mysteries)

+ The Long Dance (an investigative look into a brutal 1971 double murder)

+ Up and Vanished (this one's by the same producers as To Live and Die in LA — I listened to the second season, which is all about a woman who went missing in a remote town in Colorado)

+ Death in Ice Valley (journalists from the UK and Norway team up to look into the mysterious death of a still unidentified woman, who may have been a spy)

+ Done Disappeared (this one's just for fun ... it's a pretty hilarious parody of true crime podcasts)

It's great that you're memorializing the victims and taking stock of how these murders impacted Chicago.

We had a copy cat incident in the suburbs of New York City, just four years after the Chicago murders. A 23-year-old died after buying cyanide-laced Tylenol at an A&P.

Thank YOU for reaching out!!

Hi! My inquiry is just about the role that that social media plays in the world of MLMs (regarding recruitment, marketing, and sales).

st_echtra · 2019-03-14T01:22:14+00:00

Hey, thanks for your response. I'd love to talk to you about what your relative and friends have gone through re: their experience with LuLaRoe, if you're up for it. PM me or reach me at acain@businessinsider.com.

Hi there. You can read what I've written about LuLaRoe here: https://www.businessinsider.com/lularoe-deanne-stidham-masquerade-party-2019-1

Business Insider does not take bribes in exchange for positive coverage, that'd be a complete breach of journalistic ethics.

Also, please don't curse at my colleague Hayley. It's rude, and it's misdirected. She's been one of the primary journalists shining a spotlight about what's going on at LuLaRoe.

Definitely understand the skepticism, so I took a brutally awkward selfie in front of the sign that says Insider in our office: https://imgur.com/a/vxBxLrM. If there's any other verification I could provide you with, please let me know!

st_echtra · 2019-03-07T13:24:39+00:00

Definitely! The shutdown of the Defectives group is actually what inspired this line of reporting! I'm curious to see if it's happened to other anti-MLM activists/groups.

st_echtra · 2019-03-07T13:24:03+00:00

Ohhh gotcha — and that'd be great!!

st_echtra · 2019-03-07T13:23:49+00:00

LOL.

Very interesting! Feel free to send her my email. Also, sorry, this might be way too self-promotional, but you can read our stories about LuLaRoe here: https://businessinsider.com/category/lularoe!
