Ballot Drop Box Fires In Oregon & Washington Disrupt Upcoming Election

Hundreds of ballots were destroyed in Washington and Oregon after incendiary devices were set off at ballot drop boxes just days before the November 5 election. A ballot box in Portland was quickly extinguished, while a fire in Vancouver led to significant damage. Officials called the incidents “an attempt to disenfranchise” voters, and police are investigating a suspect vehicle linked to the fires.
