What the hell? .... There is open hostility and controversy during a major US election and they decided to just leave a big giant ballot box unsecured and open to the public? I thought they would have these things secured in a major buildings or monitored by live guard 24 hours a day until the election was completed.

That would be prohibitively expensive. Many are monitored, and they all include fire suppression systems.
