Election Day Bomb Threats Targeted Democrat-Leaning Counties: Was it Voter Suppression?
On Tuesday, numerous polling places and ballot-counting locations across five key battleground states received bomb threats, primarily targeting Democratic-leaning counties. While none of the threats were deemed credible, they appear to have been coordinated and aimed at influencing either the perception or actual outcome of the election. The threats, originating from various sources including Russian and French email services, were largely directed at high-population Democratic counties in states considered crucial for winning the election, such as Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and Detroit, Michigan. Thankfully, preparations for such scenarios minimized disruptions, with locations temporarily closed reopening later that day and no evidence of significant impact on voter turnout.
