FBI monitoring election from command post in SF
The FBI is monitoring the election from a command post in downtown San Francisco.
"The things that are priority for us are threats to people, actual acts of violence, I can say that fortunately we haven't had any of that happening here, but we are positioned to address that. Either an act of violence targeting a poll worker, or targeting somebody trying to vote," said FBI Special Agent In Charge Robert Tripp.
The command post will be staffed 24 hours a day until the election is officially over.
