Non-credible bomb threats close several New Jersey polling sites

EWING, N.J. (WPHL) — A bomb threat was called in to Ewing High School, a polling site, on Election Day, but investigators confirmed it was unfounded.

Paterson Mayor Andre Sayegh said polling sites at School 2 and School 10 were closed after receiving threats.

In Newark, Public Safety officials reported they were investigating phishing emails containing false bomb threats. They confirmed that a threat on Gotthard Street this morning was unfounded, stemming from those emails. The source of the messages is still under investigation.

No classes were being held at the high school on Tuesday due to Election Day.
