Over 180 boxes with votes and voting materials found in Puerto Rico after elections

At least 180 boxes filled with voting materials and uncounted votes from across Puerto Rico have surfaced since the Nov. 3 elections, the election commission said Tuesday, raising questions and concerns about the validity of the preliminary results.

Initially, the Puerto Rico State Elections Commission placed the number at 40, but it has continued to rise since the boxes were first reported.

Election officials blamed the new scandal on the volume of early ballots cast on the island, marking the second electoral debacle for Puerto Rico in a three-month period. In August, the U.S. territory was forced to suspend its primary elections because dozens of polling stations never received their ballots on Election Day, while thousands of voters waited in line to vote amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

General elections in Puerto Rico, held every four years alongside presidential elections in the United States, include the selection of seats for governor, legislators, mayors, and resident commissioner. The findings could affect the local elections on the island, but they would not affect the results of the U.S. elections held last week because the residents of the island do not vote in the presidential elections.
