Bomb threats sent to polling places and ballot-counting locations in at least five battleground states across the U.S. Tuesday targeted mostly Democratic counties, an NBC News analysis has found. The full extent of who received the bomb threats is not clear. None are believed to have been deemed credible. NBC News compiled a list of 67 locations in 19 counties, based on local news reports and state and local election officials’ statements, all of which appear to have received similar threats.
” “In some sense, we were lucky that there was a lot of preparation for this scenario going into 2024. I don’t know that anybody expected the coordinated campaign that seems like that we had, but there were a lot of meetings of law enforcement and election officials, tabletop exercises and trainings to be prepared for this, and as a result, I think the disruption was mostly minimized,” Norden said.
