FBI says 'inauthentic' uses of its name promote false narratives

FBI officials say there have been several instances of the "inauthentic" use of the FBI's name and seal to promote false election-related narratives.

A fabricated written statement, falsely claiming to be from the FBI, warned media and bloggers against publishing information about violence at polling stations -- claiming that active dissemination of information about attacks at polling stations may provoke a spontaneous increase in such incidents.

A fabricated video impersonating the FBI and a U.S. government agency falsely provided a joint statement suggesting schools suspend educational activities through Nov. 11, fraudulently claiming that "the risk of school shooting and riots has increased significantly" because of the election.

And a fabricated video falsely claimed the FBI received "9,000 complaints about malfunctioning voting machines."

"Election integrity is among our highest priorities, and the FBI is working closely with state and local law enforcement partners to respond to election threats," FBI officials said in a statement. "Attempts to deceive the public with false content about FBI threat assessments and activities aim to undermine our democratic process and erode trust in the electoral system."

Navajo Nation sues Apache County to keep poll sites open

The Navajo Nation Department of Justice has filed suit against Apache County, Arizona, requesting an extension of voting hours due to polling place issues.

The suit alleges that some locations in Apache County ran out of emergency ballots, that some voters were turned away due to ballot printer issues, and that some voters were forced to leave due to long lines at the polls.

"Defendants know or reasonably can be expected to know that their conduct of failing to timely conduct elections throughout the entire voting period at a polling site in Apache County has had the effect of severely burdening and in some cases, denying the right to vote for Plaintiff's members," the lawsuit says.

Earlier in the day, county officials said the countywide issue was fixed but that it created some "residual issues" including long lines at the polls.

Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes said he expects there will be a resolution before 7:00 p.m. MT -- which is when the polls are scheduled to close in Arizona.
