500 blank ballots from recent elections found near Renton dumpster

‍A box containing roughly 500 ballots from recent elections was discovered near a dumpster behind a Renton strip mall, raising concerns among state lawmakers and others about potential vulnerabilities in the state’s mail-in voting system.

Rep. Jim Walsh, R-Aberdeen and chair of the Washington State Republican Party, said the ballots appeared to have been mailed to voters but were never delivered or returned.
