Fulton County Polling Sites Evacuated After Bomb Threats.

Two polling sites in Fulton County were briefly evacuated Tuesday morning after receiving bomb threats. According to Nadine Williams, Fulton County’s Director of Registration and Elections, five polling stations in total were targeted. While authorities deemed the threats non-credible, the Etris-Darnell Community Center and C.H. Gullatt Elementary School were evacuated for about half an hour.

Both sites have since reopened and resumed normal operations.

Williams says the county is now pursuing a court order to extend voting hours at these two locations past the standard 7 PM statewide deadline to make up for the interruption.

South Fulton School Police reported that at around 8:15 AM, someone had also alerted them to potential bomb threats at several schools on Election Day. While no threats were found, officers conducted thorough safety checks across the campuses, including Feldwood Elementary School, to ensure safety.

“At this time, we do not believe these threats are credible,” police stated. “However, with several polling sites located within schools, we are aware of the potential for further attempts by bad actors to create panic and disrupt voting.”

Fulton County is best known for its association with the Democrat District Attorney, Fani Willis, who brought a controversial lawfare case against former President Donald J. Trump and his associates in the run-up to the election.
