Summary
Georgia poll worker Nicholas Wimbish, 25, has been charged with mailing a bomb threat to local election officials and making false statements to the FBI.
After a verbal altercation with a voter, Wimbish allegedly sent a threatening letter impersonating that voter, warning of physical and sexual violence against poll workers and concluding with a bomb threat.
If convicted, he faces up to 25 years in prison. The case is part of the DOJ’s Election Threats Task Force, which aims to protect election officials from intimidation and uphold election integrity.
On what appears to be his X, formerly Twitter, profile, Wimbish describes himself as a “graduate student, outspoken, avid traveler, follower of Christ, and loyal friend.”
Yup. Sending bomb threats is what Jesus would do
Another problem with the “voter fraud is rampant” rehtoric is idiots like this think they too can get away with anything.
Federal crime. 5 years in an orange jumpsuit
If convicted, he faces a maximum penalty of 25 years in prison.
25, not 5. I hope he gets the maximum. Aside from juts the threat, if his plan had worked he might have gotten an innocent person locked up for a quarter century.
The poll worker or their family could have also been injured or killed in a police raid. They were basically SWATed via mail.
The poll worker is the one who has been arrested. He sent the bomb threat to himself to try to make it look like the voter he had an altercation with sent it.
Unless an even more orange asshole instructs AG Sean Hannity to drop the case
This is in GA, Cannon’s district is South Florida. I haven’t looked to see if there is a MAGA asshole in that GA district, though.
Sadly, not too surprising in a kind of unstable country that is partially under the control of Russia.
Oh wait, it’s the other Georgia…
Oh wait, it still kinda tracks…
FAFO, asshole
