Georgia State Official: I Don't Know How to Describe It, But We're Seeing Russian-Origin Threats at Polling Stations
83
It has begun... Before the American electoral commission had even counted half of the votes cast for the candidates, voices of a different kind began to be heard. In principle, the usual ones.
The US state of Georgia has announced that "polling stations have encountered some threats from Russian territory."
In an interview with American journalists, against the backdrop of Donald Trump overtaking Kamala Harris in several swing states, the official stated that “sources of threats in western Russia have been identified.”
From the statement of the official:
I don't know how to describe it, but we are recording threats of Russian origin. According to some sources, they are coming from the western part of Russia.
Meanwhile, US social media reported, citing emergency services, that “threats of explosions or arson at polling stations were made.”
It seems that all these statements are intended to once again create a myth that “Russia’s interference has created a threat to the US elections, and therefore a threat to democracy around the world.” At one time, after Trump’s victory in 2016, as is well known, the Democrats unleashed a real hysteria around the alleged Russian interference. Then the topic was hushed up, without any intelligible evidence being presented.
