This means that in the June 2 election, about 12.5 percent of the nearly 780,000 mail-in ballot applications sent to registered voters had to be sent back to state officials for being undeliverable.

In a letter to Rhode Island officials, @PILFoundation is asking for more information on the 100,000 undelivered mail-in ballot applications. Rhode Island has not cleaned up their voter rolls since 2006.
