The ballot drop boxes in Washington and Oregon both have fire suppression systems that are designed to activate when the temperature inside reaches a certain point, coating ballots inside with a fire-suppressing powder.

For unknown reasons, the system failed to prevent the destruction of hundreds of ballots in Vancouver, just across the Columbia River from Portland.

    You’re right, its a drop in the bucket for votes, but its a bullshit reason to cry “corruption” which we will certainly feel.

      True, it’s not exactly like they care about real proof.
