Multiple threats were made against polling sites across New Jersey on Election Day on Tuesday, state officials said, prompting multiple polling areas to be temporarily closed.

In a social media post on Tuesday, New Jersey Lt. Gov. Tahesha Way said law enforcement “determined that there are no credible threats at this time,” confirming the bomb threats.
