As the presidential elections are nearing in the US, voters are pooling in numbers to drop off their ballot in possibly the most contentious election in the country’s history. However, betraying voters’ trust, ballot drop boxes in Oregon and Washington were set ablaze, rendering the ballots inside the red boxes useless.
This urged former NASCAR driver and Donald Trump supporter, Danica Patrick to take this issue to social media and warn people regarding the issues with the current vote collection.
In the affected states, police officials and fire crew were quick at the scene and revealed that the ballot boxes were attached to an incendiary device. This resulted in the boxes being covered in flames, consequently turning the ballots inside of them into ashes.
Subsequently, witnessing the state of security of votes, Danica Patrick took to her Instagram and urged people to track their ballots to make sure that their vote was counted and not turned into dust.
What?! Make sure you track your ballot so you know when it has been counted.
Danica Patrick wrote on her Instagram story.
On the other hand, Patrick revealed that she had tracked her vote after witnessing this incident. She affirmed that her vote had been counted and encouraged people to vote early to stay away from such shenanigans.
Danica Patrick reflected on her recent political involvement
Apart from this, the 42-year-old has played a key role in the campaigning for Donald Trump‘s presidential candidature throughout 2024. This increased her stature within the US’ political sphere. Also, this helped her in earning a revered role in the Republican Party and was called out by the former president for her extensive campaigning role, which left Patrick shocked.
Moreover, when she looked back at her how profusely she campaigned throughout the year, the former racing driver was left in awe as she explained on her social media.
If you would have told me a year ago I would speak at a Donald Trump rally 12 days before the election and have him call me out a few times during his speech…. I would have asked if you fell out of the coconut tree. Politics is so new and so unexpected for me. It’s an honor to be part of one of the most powerful political movements in history. Not only as far as an election but also to expose the truth and really be the party of unification.

With the voting currently underway, the fate of the US presidency could fall either way. Trump is on a journey to get back to his throne in the White House, while Kamala Harris is aiming to become the first female president in the history of the nation.
On the NASCAR side of things, Martinsville would act as a knockout round as multiple driver faces the wrath of the playoff bubble. Thus, exciting few weeks are lining up ahead as both racing and elections fronts heat up.
