PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Incendiary devices were set off Monday at two ballot drop boxes — one in Portland and another in nearby Vancouver, Washington — destroying hundreds of ballots in what one official called a "direct attack on democracy" about a week before a heated Election Day.
The early morning fire at the drop box in Portland was extinguished quickly thanks to a suppression system inside the box as well as a nearby security guard, police said, and just three ballots were damaged there.
But within a few hours, another fire was discovered at a transit center drop box across the Columbia River in Vancouver. Vancouver is the biggest city in Washington's 3rd 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.

Here we go again, up around the same bend.
I did my mail in and put a stamp on it and took to the post officce and gave to the girl behind the counter.
They have a tray beside them and they put the mail in ballots in the tray.
Two days later I got an email saying it was received.
Are people so lazy they will not go to their own post offices or are they just so cheap they wont buy a stamp?

indeed. In 1972 the Army Corps dredged the Chicago river channel, and dug up several locked ballot boxes from the 1960 election. They were from mostly Republican precincts.
