And here's the local NPR station:

It continued, “Also be aware your ballot drops are very susceptible to noxious chemicals.” The letter included several symbols whose meaning and connection to each other or to the sender remain unclear. The symbols included three arrows pointing down and to the left, which has been adopted by Antifa, an LGBTQ Pride flag, and an inverted pentagram.

The letter sent to King County Elections ahead of the August primary said, “There must be no more elections” in similar all-caps, adding, “We are a communist country now and communist countries do not have elections.” It also said, “enjoy some complimentary white powder” and “recommended” obtaining Narcan, which is used to reverse overdoses from fentanyl. Traces of that drug were found in the letter.

Joshua Fisher-Birch, a research analyst with the Counter Extremism Project, said people should not be quick to blame far-left groups for the letters just because of the symbols included. In fact, he said the opposite could be true.

Sure, Josh. You cling to that fantasy, and cling tight.
