A Democratic lawmaker in Clark County, Washington, has made a request for police to patrol all ballot drop boxes in the area after two recent incidents of arson targeting ballot boxes in the Portland area.
The lawmaker, representing Washington’s 3rd Congressional District, emphasized the importance of safeguarding the voting process and ensuring that every vote counts. The fires, one in Vancouver, Washington, and the other in Portland, Oregon, have raised concerns about potential voter disenfranchisement.
