The security of mailbox drop-in ballots has been called into question after a series of fires across multiple states.
Fires in Portland, OR, and Vancouver, WA, have raised questions after multiple, isolated incidents pertaining to be apparent arson attacks. The three attacks in the Democrat-strongholds occurred on Monday, Oct. 28, with authorities linking them to a similar incident on Tuesday, Oct. 8.
“We do know acts like this are targeted and they’re intentional and we’re concerned about that intentional act trying to impact the election process,” Portland Police Bureau Chief Assistant Chief Amanda McMillan said in a statement on Monday afternoon. “We’re dedicated to stopping this kind of behavior.”
Footage of the Vancouver fires quickly spread on social media, with users noting that one of the fires took place in the Republican-leaning Clark County.
In Portland, the attack seemed to cause less damage with only three ballots affected, according to Multnomah County Elections Director Tim Scott. Officials said the ballots were identifiable, with most protected by fire suppressant.
