The city police declared a riot in downtown Portland Wednesday night in response to widespread violence in the city, and the Oregon National Guard was activated.<\/p>\n

Authorities said the National Guard was deployed because there was “widespread violence” occurring downtown.<\/p>\n

Riot declared in Portland as rioters smash windows<\/h3>\n

A riot was declared in Portland, Ore., and protesters took to the streets in Seattle on Wednesday as people demanded that every vote in Tuesday\u2019s election be counted. Hundreds were protesting in both cities against President Donald Trump\u2019s court challenges to stop the vote count in battleground states.<\/p>\n

The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office at about 7 p.m. declared a riot after rioters were seen smashing windows at businesses. In the interest of public safety, Gov. Kate Brown activated the use of the state National Guard to help local law enforcement manage the unrest, according to the sheriff’s office.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Protesters in Seattle said they are also trying to make sure the Black Lives Matter movement and other social justice causes remain in the spotlight. Some carried signs saying, \u201cStop Trump’s Racist Voter Suppression,” \u201cBlack Lives Matter,\u201d and \u201cDon’t Steal the Election.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
