2024 ballot drop box arson attacks in the United States → 2024 ballot box fires – The current title is too wordy. Few people would actually type this sequence of words to look up these events. Multiple sources have referred to the events simply as the "ballot box fires", including the investigating Portland Police Bureau. Listing the country is also unnecessary— the year is more than enough, because no other country has had anything like this happen in 2024. Simply opening the article also immediately tells you it took place in the United States. There is no ambiguity with the title "2024 ballot box fires".
