Five letters were mailed in total - four to Washington state, one to Fulton County in Georgia - Mr Raffensperger said.

The letters to Washington have been intercepted and some tested positive for fentanyl, he said.

    I don’t think the envelopes are exploding but when you open envelopes, sometimes things go airborne when you pull stuff out. It can happen with bags too, like flour just loves to go everywhere naturally. I wasn’t sure if airborne particles would harm someone if the air from moving the envelope made it go airborne.

      It’s a valid question, but I don’t think that enough would go airborne to be dangerous under normal circumstances.

        Thanks for taking the question seriously, I don’t know anything about these kind of drugs and what they’re capable of.
