Manifesto triggered security scare for Raffensperger

A day after a threat postponed a campaign event for Brad Raffensperger’s gubernatorial campaign, a spokesperson now says a four-page handwritten manifesto was mailed to a sheriff’s office in Mississippi before the scheduled event.

The document is described as incoherent and disjointed, featuring a picture of Raffensperger with the word “BOOM” written across his forehead.

Raffensperger, who has faced hundreds of threats since the 2020 election, also received a new email containing vulgarities on Wednesday.

Law enforcement officials confirmed Wednesday that they know the identity of the person who mailed the document, but authorities have not yet released the individual’s name or announced any formal charges.

It is also unclear if the person responsible for the manifesto is linked to the bomb threat in Macon or the threatening email sent on Wednesday.
