It later emerged that the postal mail containing poisonous substances was transported to the President of the United States, Donald Trump, and was intercepted.
On the 19th (local time), foreign media such as the US CNN broadcast reported that an email containing the poisonous ‘ricin’ was found in the mail from the White House early last week. Mail destined for the White House is classified and classified by the government mail center, and in the process, the mail in question was leaked. Lysine is a substance that is extracted from castor beans and it is reported that if toxicity is increased by separate processing, only 0.001g can kill humans.
The mail was reportedly sent from Canada, CNN reported through an official on the case. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) said: “We are screening suspicious mail with the White House Secret Service and Postal Investigations, and there is currently no threat to public safety.” The email containing Leesin was previously sent to former President Barack Obama in 2014, but was leaked as well.
On the 18th, early elections were held in four states, including Minnesota. In the US Presidential election, there is vote-by-mail, early-spot voting, and same-day spot voting. Early voting was introduced to increase voter turnout and distribute voter votes, and is similar to absentee voting in Korea. There are 13 voters in Virginia, 10 in Minnesota, and three voters in Wyoming and South Dakota. The total number of voters in the US presidential elections held in indirect elections is 538. The expectation that turnout would be low due to concerns about the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) was canceled, and the early voting fever was hot. CNN reported that there were places where they waited between 30 and 40 minutes and up to 2 hours to vote. South Dakota election officials said: “On the first day of early voting in 2016, more than 100 people voted, and 150 people already passed it on the morning of the first day.” Foreign media analyzed that people who do not believe in voting by mail or who are concerned about the ‘crown ballot infection’ on Presidential Election Day were pushed into early voting. In the midst of this, President Trump and Democratic Party presidential candidate Joe Biden waged a fierce campaign to visit Minnesota, the West’s largest early voting and battlefield state.
