This Toilet Joke Might Be A Federal Crime

A Michigan resident’s toilet joke might actually be a federal crime, according to local election officials.

As a joke protest against voting by mail, someone put a toilet on their front lawn with a sign that read “Place mail in ballots here.”

But a local Democratic clerk filed a  complaint with police, pointing out that “It is a felony to take illegal possession of an absentee ballot.” Uh oh!
