USPS closes trash cans in Colorado Springs post offices to prevent election material theft

By Brennen Kauffman | The Gazette United States Postal Service has closed trash cans inside several post offices around Colorado Springs to prevent election materials from being stolen. The post offices on Fountain Boulevard, S 8th Street and Uintah Street had taped over the front of their trash cans to prevent them from being used. At the post office on Pikes Peak Avenue and South 25th Street, trash cans were entirely removed from the lobby areas. Paper signs posted around the Cheyenne Mountain facility asked customers to "Please discard any/all mail at home." The signs were attributed to USPS Management and dated to Thursday.

The crowd whistled and clapped when speaker after speaker took the microphone to criticize the plan.
