Georgia Polling Places Targeted by Russian-Origin Bomb Threat Hoaxes

A Georgia poll worker, Nicholas Wimbish, was arrested for allegedly mailing a bomb threat to the Jones County Elections Superintendent after a verbal altercation with a voter. The letter, which threatened violence against election workers, led to charges including mailing a bomb threat and making false statements to the FBI. This case is part of the Justice Department's Election Threats Task Force's efforts to protect election workers from intimidation and violence.
