Georgia has experienced a series of non-credible bomb threats today, with reports indicating an escalation as the state nears poll closing time. A senior Democrat in the state has confirmed that threats are being monitored in Atlanta, but there is optimism that voters who may have been deterred will still make their way to the polls.
As a precautionary measure, some polling locations have decided to extend their voting hours in response to these threats. In DeKalb County, Georgia, voting was temporarily suspended at five polling sites due to safety concerns arising from the threats.
