Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger addressed the media on Election Day, providing updates on the state’s polling locations and addressing Russian threats. Raffensperger stated that all polling locations are expected to finish reporting results by the end of the night, with smaller counties aiming to be done by 10:30 PM. He mentioned bomb threats of Russian origin but deemed them non-credible attempts to sow discord. The FBI later confirmed awareness of bomb threats to polling locations in several states, including Georgia, originating from Russian email domains. However, none of these threats have been deemed credible. The FBI emphasized that election integrity is a top priority and urged the public to report any suspicious activity. Secretary of State Raffensperger also emphasized the importance of remaining vigilant against such threats. This press conference highlights the ongoing efforts to ensure the safety and security of the election process in Georgia amid reports of potential foreign interference.
