The FBI has confirmed the numerous threats against Georgia polling locations coming from Russian origins. However, no bombs were found at the polling sites.
The full statement is below.
“The FBI is aware of bomb threats to polling locations in several states, many of which appear to originate from Russian email domains. None of the threats have been determined to be credible thus far.
Election integrity is among the FBI’s highest priorities. We will continue to work closely with our state and local law enforcement partners to respond to any threats to our elections and to protect our communities as Americans exercise their right to vote.”
In Georgia, several polling locations were evacuated due to the bomb threats earlier today. Precincts that were shut down temporarily while the threats were investigated were reopened and will be open later tonight to make up for the lost time.
