In August, Colorado’s top election official noticed a surge in security at the hospital where she was recovering from a C-section

Jena Griswold , Colorado ’s top election official, was admitted to the hospital for her scheduled C-section.

The presence of her armed security personnel suddenly “doubled,” she says.

It would be days before she’d learn why this was happening, and whether it had anything to do with former President Donald Trump .

Colorado Secretary of State Sally Griswold says she's faced a 600 percent increase in threats and harassment since she backed an effort to dump the twice-impeached former president from its ballot in her blue state to dump him off the ballot.

The FBI claims convicted felon, convicted felon Michael Brockbank , made serious violent threats in 2021 and 2022 .

The Justice Department alleges that at the end of last year , following the Colorado Supreme Court ruling that Trump could be kept off the state’s 2024 primary ballot, he wrote in a private message.

Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes says the Justice Department is failing to protect election workers.

Colorado 's secretary of state says she has received more than 1,000 death threats or violent threats since September 2023 .

She says she refuses to be “intimidated” despite a regular influx of gruesome-sounding phone calls and social media posts.
