nbcnews.com
Police are investigating what appears to be gunfire damage overnight at a Democratic Party-coordinated campaign office for Vice President Kamala Harris.
The incident occurred just a few days before Harris is scheduled to visit Arizona as she campaigns for president.
“We can confirm that on 9/23/24, what appears to be damage from gunfire at … a DNC Campaign Office, was discovered,” the Tempe Police Department said in a statement to NBC News on Tuesday.
The office is shared by staff for the Arizona Democratic Party, the Harris campaign, and Senate and House campaigns, to boost turnout for the party in November.

It's in Tempe, which is a college town and usually a lot more "variety of ideas friendly" area. It's a big ass state, not gone down the rabbit hole of how gerrymandered we might be, but I'm listed in a town by address that is nowhere near where my "local" library, grocery, etc which is another town.
There is a lot of wild west expanse and geriatric retirement that keeps a red hold, Tempe isn't far from Phoenix downtown where I went to a fucking awesome Green Day, Smashing Pumpkins, Rancid, The Linda Linda's concert last week. I was quite impressed at the the number of both old and young punks that showed up and packed the place! Openly anti trump remarks through the show... not too many left early even, despite the traffic... hmmm...
And, this shit was done overnight, who the hell did they think they might get, janitorial staff? Random underpaid security guard? What fucking dickbags man. Random violence is bad, putting people just doing their jobs, regardless of political affiliation, is just really poor form.
I saw the negativity points to your remark, which should generally be "well yeah... it's the wild red west?!" Thought some of this may shed a light on that response?
(And, wanted to squeeze in that my old ass stayed up for a whole Green Day show, on a school night!)
Edit: btw, I live in bfe, no way in hell am I putting on a bumper sticker or a sign in my yard. Out of town, there's lots of crazies with guns. Edit, edit: fixed a, guess half of a sentence got typed... elsewhere?
They weren't trying to shoot anyone, they were trying to make people afraid by putting bullet holes in the building with less chance of getting caught.
Probably true, since they are a bunch of cowards without their guns and anonymity.
