A local postal inspector intercepted an envelope containing suspicious white powder and threatening letters intended for the office of Deidre M. Henderson, according to a post published October 18.
The intercepted package was handed off to the FBI before it could be delivered to the office, Henderson said.
Henderson noted that state election officials across the country began receiving envelopes containing threatening letters and suspicious white powder last week.
Despite the incident, Henderson stated that nothing will disrupt the midterm election and expressed gratitude for the diligence and service of the postal inspector.
Early in-person voting is scheduled to start this week. Voters can track their ballots at trackmyballot.utah.gov.
