"We've been monitoring a particular threat that has emerged. We have a statement that we've gotten information from the FBI. We are aware that there have been threats made not just here in Arizona, but Georgia, Minnesota, Michigan and Wisconsin," Fontes said.
He said they were bomb threats and were targeted to areas in Navajo County.
"These are unsubstantiated threats. We have no reason to believe that any of our voters or any of our polling places are in any sort of jeopardy," Fontes said. "I was briefed just moments ago by my security team and some folks with law enforcement who are working in conjunction with the feds."
He says there is reason to believe the unsubstantiated threats came from Russia.
