Clark County, Washington state, is taking proactive measures to ensure the security of ballot boxes after recent incidents of ballots being destroyed by fires in the Pacific Northwest. At least 66 seasonal workers are being hired to monitor all 22 ballot drop boxes in the county around the clock.
The workers, stationed at a distance from the drop boxes, will observe and report any suspicious activity to authorities without interfering. Clark County Auditor Greg Kimsey emphasized that the observers will play a crucial role in safeguarding the integrity of the election process.
