Among the mail, there was a letter from the Employment Development Department and a copy of a driver's license.
LAPD gathered the letters and the ballots. Since the investigation is just beginning and no one is sure how it happened, several agencies could get involved.
The ballots were picked up by someone from the Registrar's Office Wednesday afternoon.
LAPD is investigating whether the mail was stolen.
