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.

The ballot box in Vancouver also had a fire suppression system inside,
but that failed to prevent hundreds of ballots from burning, said Greg Kimsey,
the longtime elected auditor in Clark County, Washington, which includes Vancouver.
He urged voters who dropped their ballots in the transit center box after 11 a.m. Saturday to contact his office for a replacement ballot

Barabak: This Democrat pulled off one of the country’s biggest upsets.

Can she win again in Trump country?

Two years ago, one of the nation’s biggest political upsets took place here amid the radiant greenery of the Pacific Northwest.

A new mom, the 34-year-old owner of an auto repair shop, made a run for Congress with zero help from national Democrats and nabbed a seat Republicans had held for more than a decade.

Now that seat is central to the fight for control of the House.

The incumbent, #Marie #Gluesenkamp #Perez, is among the least likely Democrats you’ll find in Congress.

She trashes the Biden administration’s record on immigration and won’t endorse Kamala Harris for president.

She resides down a gravel road in a house she and her husband built.

She exalts those who work with their hands
— plumbers, mechanics, electricians
— and belittles the highbrows who populate Washington,
speaking the put-upon language of people ignored or disdained because of where they live or how they labor.

Congratulations to Oscar Piastri on a fantastic race and an incredible win! 🎉🏆 What a brilliant display of skill and determination. Absolutely well-deserved! Meanwhile, it's unbelievable how Perez managed to mess things up once again. Another mistake that cost Red Bull big time. 🤯 Baku never fails to keep us on the edge of our seats!

Sergio Peréz je už dlouho úplně marnej. Nepovedené kvalifikace střídají ještě nepovedenější závody, ale včera měl možnost prokázat, že je alespoň trochu platným členem týmu.

Když ho v závěrečné třetině závodu po druhé výměně pneumatik míjel Luis Hamilton, mohl ho aspoň trochu zpomalit, zbrzdit nebo dokonce blokovat, ale on se nehodí ani jako brzda…d8-D

Good knitwear, great accents and a stoic detective: Shetland is peak ‘dad television’ – and I love it

This BBC Scottish crime series gives a lot, very quietly. A decade late, I have happily jumped on the bandwagon/slow-moving local ferry

Shetland is a mild, full-hearted police procedural – “like a cross between Wallander and Midsomer Murders”, Sarah Dempster wrote in the Guardian in 2013 – and set mainly on that Scottish archipelago –
