Fake bomb threats to two urban county polling places in Georgia appear to be Russian-tied hoaxes

Georgia authorities said Tuesday that Russians appear to be behind fake bomb threats to two urban county polling places but that the threats haven't disrupted voting.

The hoax has affected polling places in Fulton County and Clayton County, Georgia.

"These appear to be Russian-tied hoaxes and we have full investigations ongoing,” Jordan Fuchs, a spokeswoman for Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger told Just the News. Fuchs said the threats were made virtually and that there appears to be no bombs in either location. Voting continues unimpeded, she said.
