MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. (WSAV) — A Georgia poll worker was arrested Monday for allegedly mailing a letter threatening other poll workers with rape, a "beatdown" and a bomb threat. Nicholas Wimbish, 25, was working at the Jones County Elections Office on Oct. 16 when he had a verbal altercation with a voter, according to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ). The next day, Wimbish mailed a letter to the county elections superintendent, written to appear as though it came from the voter he had argued with, the DOJ said in a Monday press release. The letter said, "Wimbish had 'give[n] me hell,' according to the DOJ. Ohio sheriff's lieutenant who said he 'will not help' Democratic Party supporters apologizes Wimbish allegedly made other complaints about himself, claiming that he was "conspiring votes" and distracting people from concentrating. The letter also said that Wimbish and other poll workers "should look over their shoulder" and that he would "beatdown" the young men "if they fight me." Additionally, the letter threatened to "rage rape" female poll workers and concluded with a handwritten note, saying, "PS boom toy in early vote place, cigar burning, be safe," according to the DOJ. Wimbish has been charged with mailing a bomb threat, conveying false information about a bomb threat, as well as mailing a threatening letter and making false statements to the FBI. The FBI Atlanta Field Office is investigating the case.
