Colorado’s secretary of state, Jena Griswold, a Democrat, has blamed former President Donald Trump and the Republican Party for an increase in death threats she has received.
She alleges that the rhetoric of violence and disinformation from Trump and Republicans is being used to suppress the vote and intimidate election officials.
Griswold also pointed out a high turnover rate among elected county clerks since 2020.
“I would say Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress and high-ranking Republicans across the nation who have not stood up to condemn the rhetoric of violence,” Griswold said.
“All the lies, all the disinformation are used as justification to suppress the vote across the nation.”
“The lies have incited security breaches, including election officials breaching their own equipment, and have really incited a wave of political threats to election workers,” she added. “And the intended result is happening.”
