Georgia Polling Places Targeted by Non-Credible Russian Bomb Threats

Non-credible bomb threats that temporarily disrupted voting at two polling places in Georgia were traced back to Russia, according to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. The threats led to the temporary closure of polling sites in Union City, a predominantly Black area, prompting officials to seek extended voting hours. The FBI is involved but has not confirmed the credibility of the threats. Raffensperger suggested the threats were intended to disrupt the election process.
