Ballot Box Fires Raise Election Security Concerns in Pacific Northwest
New security footage reveals a suspect in their 30s or 40s attaching an incendiary device to a ballot box in Vancouver, Washington, which ignited shortly after they fled. The attack, captured on multiple cameras, occurred early on October 28, 2024, and resulted in hundreds of ballots being destroyed. The suspect, believed to have expertise in metal fabrication, is linked to a similar attack in Portland an hour later. Authorities are searching for a dark-colored Volvo S-60, identified as the suspect's vehicle.
