You don't pay to drop mail in a drop box. I think you're confusing the mail box that customers receive mail in, with mail drop boxes. They have drop slots inside the post office and one outside for when they are closed, usually.

Nobody would put outgoing mail into a paid, locked PO Box.

I don't know where my confusion came from. I thought someone had the ballot sent to a po box, but didn't receive it and someone claimed (maybe someone fished it out). My mistake for sure.

I think I conflated 2 situations.

No worries. I was like, yeah, that is what a po box is, but in, not in this context.

This is a plausible explanation. 6 people were arrested for fishing out of a mailbox right outside of the post office in Massachusetts. Those are the highest volume boxes and likely to be targeted.
