“None of the threats have been determined to be credible thus far,” the FBI said.

At least 30 bomb threats have been reported across the country — all non-credible — the vast majority of which have impacted Democratic-leaning counties.

At least 14 non-credible bomb threats have been confirmed in Georgia, centered on counties near Atlanta. Thus far, every threat has landed in a district that voted for President Joe Biden in 2020.

In Pennsylvania, a key swing state for this election, Gov. Josh Shapiro said that “multiple bomb threats” were called during the last hour for voters to get in line to vote.
