Ballots Burned, Vote Center Vandalized Day Before Los Angeles Mayoral Race

Vandalism was discovered Sunday morning at the voting center in Long Beach’s Cesar E. Chavez Park.

The county registrar-recorder’s office said election workers responded and voting operations were uninterrupted.

The county registrar-recorder said that it is “carefully reviewing both incidents and working to identify any voters who may have been affected.”

Voters who were affected by the fire will be contacted individually and given instructions on how to vote again.

“Replacement ballots are possible,” remarked the county registrar-recorder.
