Arizona polling sites received 'unsubstantiated' bomb threats

Four polling locations in Navajo County, Arizona, received bomb threats, according to the state's top election official.

"As to bomb threats in Arizona, the threats pertained to four specific locations in Navajo County only," Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes said at a press conference. "These are unsubstantiated threats."

Fontes said his office has reason to believe the threats are from Russia, but clarified that hasn't been confirmed.

"I don't know that I'm at liberty to reveal anything more than my solid suspicion grounded in information that I don't know that I can share yet," Fontes said.

No polling locations were closed due to the bomb threats, Fontes said.

The North Carolina State Board of Elections approved extending the voting hours by 30 minutes at two precincts after both opened late this morning due to technical issues.

Fulton County, Georgia (various)

Federal judge rejects RNC lawsuit seeking to block GA voters from hand-returning mail-in ballots

A federal judge has rejected an RNC lawsuit seeking to block some Georgia counties from accepting ballots that were hand-delivered over the weekend and Monday, according to Marc Elias, a lawyer working for Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign.

Judge R. Stan Baker -- who was appointed by former President Donald Trump -- said the lawsuit from Republicans "does not withstand even the most basic level of statutory review and reading comprehension," per Elias.

Republicans had claimed that the seven Georgia counties that were accepting hand-delivered mail-in ballots after the early voting period were violating the law.
