Former President Donald Trump’s supporters have been incessantly threatening Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold with death and violence after her state successfully challenged Trump’s right to be on the 2024 presidential ballot.
“I’ve been concerned about violence and threats of violence since Donald Trump incited the insurrection,” said Griswold, Colorado’s Democratic secretary of state since 2019, in an interview with HuffPost. “I’ve received hundreds if not thousands of threats at this point.” Griswold made the statement after the Colorado Supreme Court ordered to remove Trump from the state’s 2024 ballot under the 14th Amendment’s prohibition on insurrectionists, a decision the former president has pledged to appeal, per Raw Story.
