Elissa Slotkin's home

U.S. Representative Elissa Slotkin's home in Holly, Michigan, was the target of a swatting hoax on Thursday evening, just days after she won the Democratic primary for the U.S. Senate race. A false threat was emailed to a local official, prompting a significant police response from Michigan State Police, who confirmed that no one was in danger as Slotkin was not home at the time. Slotkin's spokeswoman, Lynsey Mukomel, highlighted this incident as part of a disturbing trend of swatting targeting public officials, which has also affected other lawmakers like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Rick Scott. The U.S. Capitol Police will follow up on the investigation to hold those responsible accountable. Slotkin is set to face Republican Mike Rogers in the upcoming November elections for the Senate seat currently held by Debbie Stabenow, who is not seeking re-election.
