@pbsnews: Election officials speak out on the violent threats and stress they’ve faced since 2020 With about two and a half weeks until Election Day, some parts of the country are still looking for people to work at polling places. One reason could be the threats and harassment that’s been aimed at election officials since the false claims that the 2020 election was stolen. Current and former election officials from across the country share their experiences. #pbsnews #pbsnewshour #newshour #election #pollworker #polls #2020election #electionday #vote #2024elections #threats
These messages needs to be played on every national network.

Australian here, I'm so sorry this is happening to you, it's appalling. we would not put up with this here, any threats just wouldn't happen and if they did would be pursued by the law immediately.

waiiitt this actually makes so much sense! especially the part of feeling that the only place you’ve ever known being red, and then blue bc of changing demographics that they refuse to acknowledge

This would be very scary. Thanks for holding your ground. Are there no laws against threatening election officials/poll workers?

I can relate to this. I’ve worked 4 Canadian elections, both provincial and federal. People can be pretty awful and irate, and it’s scary. 😕
