A mail-forwarding error caused some ballots to be returned to voters in this month's Pierce Conservation District Board of Supervisors election. The district sent 1,237 ballots this year. District officials said they had 28 voters to date contact them to say their ballots were returned to sender. They won't know until March 28 how many ballots have been submitted when they get that information from the third-party they contract with to collect them. District officials realized March 7 that some ballots that were filled out and mailed were returned to sender.
