A letter purportedly laced with fentanyl has been sent to the Fulton County Elections Office, WSB-TV reported.
Officials are reportedly trying to intercept the letter before it arrives.
“We’re working with our state and federal partners to determine if any additional Georgia officials are being targeted. Domestic terrorists will not trample on our right to free and fair elections. Election officials should be free from fear and intimidation, which is why I’ve called on the General Assembly to increase penalties for election interference. We will work tirelessly to ensure that Georgia elections remain free, fair, and secure,” Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said.
A spokesperson for the Department of Justice has declined to comment on the matter.
“We are aware of the reports and the FBI and U.S. Postal Inspection Service are investigating this matter. We have no further comment at this time.”
