reported by Mehr News Agency, according to Reuters, after several ballot boxes for the 2024 US presidential election were set on fire in the state of Washington and Oregon, the police of this country announced the beginning of an investigation into this issue and believes that “arson” has been.
Two separate fires in Portland, Oregon, damaged three ballots, and another fire in Vancouver, Washington, destroyed hundreds of ballots, officials said. A fire broke out in Washington, D.C. on October 8, and authorities believe that all fires were started in a similar fashion.
Amanda McMillan, deputy of the Portland Police Department, said: “We don’t know the motive for this arson, but what we do know is that actions like this are done purposefully and deliberately.”
Possession of a destructive device and unlawful acts are among the possible charges against the suspect or suspects, according to a Portland police official. Video footage shows smoke billowing from a polling booth in Vancouver and appears to have burned several ballot papers.
According to reports, the fire extinguishing system built into the boxes moderated the damage caused in the Portland fire and the first Vancouver fire. However, due to the failure of the system in the second Vancouver fire, more votes were burned in the fire. Early voting for the November 5th election with the competition of former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris has started a few days ago.
