Election officials in at least two states contact law enforcement after threatening emails sent to voters


(CNN) Elections officials in Florida and Alaska contacted law enforcement Tuesday after registered voters reported receiving threatening emails that said, "Vote for Trump or else!" A spokesperson for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency said in a statement that it is aware of the emails. CNN asked John Scott-Railton, a senior researcher at the University of Toronto's Citizen Lab, to review metadata contained in the email sent to Palmer. He said the email had been sent using internet infrastructure in Saudi Arabia. Vice News earlier reported that it had obtained an email that had been sent using infrastructure in Estonia.
