By all accounts there was election vandalism by both sides. But that is political, and I'm talking about religious violence. I believe that christians are guilty of all sorts of violence against any they believe are deserving of punishment, wether it be killing doctors or threatening atheist children with knives, all the way down to simple vandalism. The study on religious violence I read based on crime statistics showed relatively few incidents of violence or vandalism against christians compared to other religions. The vast majority of religious violence in the US is actually performed by christians against Jews and Muslims.
