Poll Workers, Election Officials Received Death Threats

 No matter what political party you vote for, making death threats is barbaric, illegal, and atrocious behavior and should not be tolerated. There have been countless threats made against people who have ensured we have fair and secure elections Including Average people who just WORK THE POLLS and run ballots through a machine. These threats come from the fools who support those in the republican party who have stood behind the lie that the election was 'stolen' from Trump.  All of these people making these threats need to be JAILED and have their guns permanently removed. When did the Republican party decide to start supporting and promoting this kind of behavior?  Here are some of the stories:
