In addition to other potential explosive devices that had been mailed to George Soros, Bill and Hillary Clinton as well as former President Obama, the Florida office of Debbie Wasserman Schultz has also been evacuated:

And here’s why a suspicious package ended up at Wasserman Schultz’s office:
BREAKING: Suspicious package sent to @DWStweets was originally addressed to @EricHolder , but had incorrect address… but return address was Wasserman-Schultz office so it went there. Packages sent to @HillaryClinton also had @DWStweets return address. @WPLGLocal10

NBC News first reported about the return addresses on other packages being listed as Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s office:
NBC News: The return address name on the suspicious packages found at Clinton, Obama, and Soros' addresses belongs to DNC official Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.

(There's no suggestion OBVIOUSLY that Wasserman Schultz sent the packages).
