Conspiculously absent from the pages of Thursday editions of the Omaha World-Herald is a story concerning the discovery of missing ballots supplied by Omaha-based election company ES&S (Election Systems and Software).
Although a story written by Kevin O'Hanlon moved on The Associated Press' national news wire, the World-Herald chose not to publish it, nor anything written by its own news staff.
O'Hanlon's story says Election Systems and Software was criticized after several counties in Montana and Wyoming received absentee ballots for the Nov. 7 election after the deadline for starting to mail them to voters had passed.
The last of the missing ballots were accounted for Wednesday - 300 miles from where they were supposed to be, according to the wire story.
ES&S is a subsidiary of McCarthy Group Inc., which is jointly held by the holding firm and the Omaha World-Herald Company.
