Imagine living in a house you rent from a couple who doesn’t even live in the same state. What would you do if their mail arrived at your address? Would you forward it or wait for the landlords to come collect it themselves?

In this story, one renter plans to forward the mail, but he doesn’t want to forward it right away due to what exactly arrived in the mail.

However, he’s feeling conflicted about his decision and wondering if he really should forward the mail right away.

WIBTA for taking a few weeks to forward my landlord’s mail?

My landlords are an older married couple and they live out of state.

They got ballots for my county mailed to my address.

They do not live here in this county anymore but are apparently still registered to vote here.

OP doesn’t want them to vote.

The only thing on the ballot is a school funding tax that my wife and I are in favor of, and I know my landlord is generally cheap and I would assume, not having school age kids or living in this community, they may vote against the measure, canceling out our votes in favor.

Plus they just don’t live here anymore and it would really bug me if they do vote in our county elections.

Would I be a jerk if I slow walked sending their ballot until after it’s too late for their ballots to be counted?

The landlords really need to have their mail sent to the address where they actually live, and they should really be registered to vote wherever they actually live. That said, what should OP do?

Let’s see how Reddit responded.

The answer is pretty clear.

Another person has a suggestion.

This person thinks OP has two options.

Everyone thinks OP’s idea is messed up.

OP obviously shouldn’t intentionally try to prevent the landlords from voting in the election; however, another issue is that the landlord’s mail is being delivered at an address where the landlord doesn’t live.

OP either needs to drop the ballot back in the mail or contact the landlord to see what they want him to do with the ballot.

His idea was pretty terrible.
