Trump has put pressure on Congress to pass the SAVE America Act, a measure that would require photo identification and proof of U.S. citizenship to vote.
This was attempted in Portland during the last major election, and while a handful of votes were invalidated, because they were picked up so frequently there wasn’t many. Also the dumbasses that did it didn’t wait for the election to be almost complete, which allowed for those with affected ballots to revote.
It also made them improve drop box security this time around, so it’s not as easy to tamper with the votes inside now.
Remember, the alternative here would be allowing the feds to systematically throw away massive amounts of votes in blue cities via USPS. Ballot dropboxes are way more secure than dealing with the USPS where your ballot is treated like normal mail at best, and something to discard at worst.
How are they protected? I imagine a truck running in to it or a bit of chemicals would invalidate the votes. Only in blue districts of course.
