Dateline Clackamas County, Oregon, yesterday.
From the online Willamette Week, a local publication:
Department of Justice Investigating Alleged Ballot Fraud At Clackamas County Elections
She hasn't yet lawyered up (stupid git), but when she does, oh boy, is her lawyer going to be annoyed... because she confessed her criminal behavior to journalists who knocked on her door:
Suspect in Clackamas County Voting Fraud Case Claims Only Two Ballots Were Involved
I was relieved that the fraud wasn't committed in my own voting county of Multnomah Oregon, although Clackamas is the second most populated county in the state.

From the online Willamette Week, a local publication:
Department of Justice Investigating Alleged Ballot Fraud At Clackamas County Elections
A Clackamas County elections worker is under criminal investigation for tampering with ballots, WW has learned.
The underlying allegation is that the woman, whose name has not been released, filled in blanks on ballots turned into the county for the Nov. 6 general election.
Sources familiar with the incident say their understanding is that the woman filled in a straight Republican ticket on the ballots where preferences had been left blank by voters.

Suspect in Clackamas County Voting Fraud Case Claims Only Two Ballots Were Involved
The woman who’s at the center of a ballot-tampering investigation at the Clackamas County elections office tells WW the number of ballots involved in the case is two.
WW has identified the woman as Deanna Swenson, 55, of Oregon City, who until last Wednesday was working as a temporary employee at the county elections office. Swenson is now facing a criminal investigation, after elections officials say she filled in mailed ballots where voters left their preferences blank.
I was relieved that the fraud wasn't committed in my own voting county of Multnomah Oregon, although Clackamas is the second most populated county in the state.
