White Powder

1 GoKawiil brief on this topic

Suspicious powder-laced letters sent to election offices in at least 32 states

A WIRED investigation found election offices across 32 states received letters containing white powder in the days before the midterms, prompting evacuations in Arizona, Delaware, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Louisiana. Most letters were intercepted by the U.S. Postal Service before reaching staff, and tests on the powder that did reach offices found it non-hazardous. Ten states and Washington, DC reported no such letters, while eight state offices did not respond to inquiries.
