Los Angeles officials warn against election interference after ballots burned, voter center vandalized [View all]
Los Angeles County election officials on Sunday warned against election interference after several mail-in ballots were burned and a voting center was vandalized, two days before voters cast their ballots in the California primary.
A staffer with the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk’s office noticed “fire-related damage inside” a ballot drop box outside the Department of Public Social Services in the Civic Center district in downtown Los Angeles, according to a statement from election officials.
“Preliminary information indicates the incident was isolated and involved a small number of ballots, as it occurred between the most recent scheduled collection and the following morning’s retrieval,” officials said.
Election officials filed a report with the Los Angeles Police Department.
