Summary
Election offices in several Oregon counties, including Deschutes, Crook, and Jefferson, received bomb threats via email last week, prompting FBI involvement.
While the threats were deemed not credible, investigations are ongoing. The incidents follow a pattern of election-related hostility, including arson targeting ballot boxes in Portland, Oregon, and Vancouver, Washington, last month.
Federal authorities are offering a $25,000 reward for information on the arson, which involved incendiary devices marked with “free Gaza.”
Officials emphasize election integrity and public safety amid rising tensions surrounding elections.
Agreed there, but I’d say wait until there’s an actual person discovered. Anonymous notes left by criminals… aren’t trustworthy sources. It could be by someone that is protesting isreal… or it could be by someone that believes all Palestinians are terrorists, and wants everyone else to believe it too.
Course either way, doesn’t matter, it’s one crazed person or group, and we can’t let him speak for anyone of a whole no matter how much we dislike the other side.
