A suspect has been arrested in connection with the arson of a U.S. Postal Service mailbox in Phoenix, Arizona, which damaged approximately 20 electoral ballots for the upcoming election. The fire occurred early Thursday morning, with firefighters quickly extinguishing the blaze. Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego and Secretary of State Adrian Fontes emphasized the seriousness of this attack on the democratic process, noting it as both a state felony and federal crime. Voters who may have used the mailbox are advised to check their ballot status online, with Friday being the last day to request a replacement. The incident comes amid heightened political activity in Arizona, a key battleground state, with Donald Trump and Kamala Harris actively campaigning there. The investigation is ongoing, led by postal inspectors and the Phoenix Fire Investigations Task Force.
