FBI investigating after U.S. ballot boxes set on fire in Washington and Oregon

J6 was just a practice for MAGA.
I dunno about that, if it had actually been some sort of sedition or coup attempt, it was certainly disappointing, disjointed, and inept. Since it wasn't, and it was just a bunch of folks blowing off steam without any real notion of what they were there for, it was a combination of lost tourists who stayed between the velvet ropes on their unguided tour and a minor riot.
 
Oh, the Biden FBI is looking into it. Well, they'll be sure to get to the bottom of why a drop box in a rare GOP area around Portland got sabotaged.
Routh out on bail?

Using an incendiary device is an act of terrorism I think.
 
Wow. What is going on America?

Surely you are telling me in this day in age, when Americans use computer voting that there would be multiple cameras on these ballot box locations and we will see an arrest within the hour, right? According to the article there are cameras so whoever did this must be outed and charged with a serious crime.


Authorities, including the FBI, were investigating Monday after early morning fires were set in U.S. ballot drop boxes in Portland, Ore., and in nearby Vancouver, Wash., where hundreds of ballots were destroyed.

The Portland Police Bureau reported that officers and firefighters responded to a fire in one ballot drop box at about 3:30 a.m. PT and determined an incendiary device had been placed inside. Multnomah County elections director Tim Scott said a fire suppressant inside the drop box protected nearly all the ballots; only three were damaged, and his office planned to contact those voters to help them obtain replacements.

A few hours later, across the Columbia River in Vancouver, television crews captured footage of smoke pouring out of a ballot box at a transit centre. Vancouver is the biggest city in Washington's third congressional district, the site of what is expected to be one of the closest U.S. House races in the country, between first-term Democratic Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez and Republican challenger Joe Kent.

"I hope the perpetrator of this reprehensible act is quickly apprehended — and local and federal law enforcement have my full support in working to keep our democratic process safe and secure," Gluesenkamp Perez said in a statement.

There were surveillance cameras that covered the drop box and surrounding area, he said.

"FBI Investigation" is swamp-speak for 'cover-up'
 
Democrats in WA and OR are terrified that Trump will win those states.
That's where the most radical ones live anyway. The ones that are actually willing to put their hands on.....

They are probably investigating to determine if they can use this tactic elsewhere to subvert the election and then blame it on Conservative domestic terrorists.
 
That's what makes it funny. If Kamala wins Joe will remove all the "K's" from the White House keyboards.


Kamala's not going to win. Whether or not the democrats cheat their way to the top and she gets installed like Biden, she's not winning this election.
 
Of course that is silly, as early voting favors democrats.
You know nothing about voting in Washington.
We are 100% vote-by-mail and voting lasts 18 days.
We are a one-party State. No Republican wins a statewide office.
The only hint of party preference is the geographical area.
The date means nothing because it's 100% mail-in and there is no option for voting in person on election day.
We do not register voters by political party.
Our primaries are "top two" elections- there is no guarantee a republican will even be on the ballot.
Ballot returns are not reported by political party (since voters to not register by party).
Candidates are not even listed by party. Sometimes they say "prefers republican", or "prefers democrat".

"Early voting" is not even a distinction you can make in Washington- all voting is "early voting".
If anyone were to make an rational, educated guess, one would of course guess it is a MAGAt whose brain is addled by lies about stolen elections and mail ballot fraud for democrats.

Like, someone gullible enough to think a guy like Garland Favorito has credibility.
You are a child.

Don't call him 'Bullshit Man' for nothing.
 
Washington towns ALSO have indoor ballot boxes. The voters know this and know they are taking a risk by being lazy and using the "convenient" outdoor ballot boxes.

If you wish to return your voted ballot in person on or before Election Day take it to:

Clark County Elections Office (1408 Franklin Street, Vancouver), available from 8 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday and 7 am to 8 pm on Election Day.
I don't know of any "indoor ballot boxes" other than the election office itself.

Virtually all of the ballots go though the mail.

There are a few official drop boxes setup by the county for people who don't want to use the mail. I have never heard of an indoor drop box anywhere.

It doesn't matter what I know or don't know. Though i know enough to know the vote in Washington is not 100% by mail. You can indeed vote in person, and the numbers of those who do not trust mail voting in Washington are mugh higher, among Republicans.

What matters is what the arsonist knows. And he did the same thing to a drop box in Oregon, and did it for the same reasons.

So you aren't making the big point you think you are making, sorry.

And you're a gullible child to think Favorito is anything but a laughingstock, among serious people. You're being fooled by paid liars who are fooling you for personal gain.
