Had your friend completed and submitted all three ballots, their signatures would have been verified to those on record. Since all three ballots have the same address, they would have been easily rounded up by local enforcement to be arrested.

GISYX and BCSVX are also some good options.
You haven't indicated what are you looking for: small, mid or large cap? Growth vs Value? Taxable vs non-taxable accounts?
I figured Mines was from Michigan since Michigan Technological University has a mining degree program as well as two news links are from the Detroit News.
Unfortunately, by DeJoy's own admission that some of his changes have slowed down the mail (see link below), yet when he was asked yesterday's hearing about the changes, he knows nothing about it.

There are 50 US states and in 42 of them, for this year, anyone who wants to vote by mail can do so.

Out of all the millions and millions of mail in ballots, they have found a small number of instances of voter fraud over the years.

Trump and Navarro probably held large interest in KODK prior to the announcement. I didn't even read the link prior to drawing that hypothesis. Questionable fast money and the sleaziness of the executive branch of government are tied at the hip.

At least you were able to purchase it.
