What the hell? .... There is open hostility and controversy during a major US election and they decided to just leave a big giant ballot box unsecured and open to the public? I thought they would have these things secured in a major buildings or monitored by live guard 24 hours a day until the election was completed.
We have them installed out in the open outside public libraries and City Hall. You skip having to add a USPS delay, coupled with text messages from the election office verifying they got it. They're great if you don't feel like standing in line on election day. Never had problems.
Nobody thought there would be dipshits out there who thought setting them on fire was a sane idea.
Actually, they have thought of this. Most ballot boxes have a fire suppression system. It's curious these ones didn't.
It's not mentioned in this link but I read earlier that only a few ballots were destroyed (thanks to the fire suppression)
Take that with a grain of salt as I'm just a stranger on the internet who isn't providing a source for their claim
In Oregon the fire suppression worked but apparently in Washington it didn't and they lost hundreds of ballots.
Next idiot will pour something caustic or maple syrup into it.
The problem is someone thinking this is OK or provides any sort of advantage to their cause.
Next time I commit election fraud I'm going to release thousands upon thousands of wood beetles upon the ballot box that'll show em
That would be prohibitively expensive. Many are monitored, and they all include fire suppression systems.
You going to pay for the guards?
America did that before and it didn't go well
