Arizona law enforcement officials are conducting an arson investigation after election ballots were damaged when a USPS mail collection box was burned in Maricopa County, a Democratic stronghold.

ABC 15 reported that crews responded to the USPS Osborn Station around 1:30 a.m. on Thursday and found a mail collection box on fire.

“Approximately 20 electoral ballots were damaged, along with additional miscellaneous mail,” Phoenix Fire Department officials revealed, according to ABC 15.

      Not everything is about the elections just because it’s that season. Arson doesn’t care about the election.

      It wasn’t a ballot drop box that was set on fire, it was a regular old mail drop box.

        On the flip side, election season is the ONLY time an arsonist can burn people’s votes. Maybe that’s exactly why it happened after all 🤷
