This is happening around the country even republican election officials are being threatened as we have seen in Maricopa County. Their candidate lost 2-1 and they still claim fraud, I guess facts don't matter.

Two top Arizona election officials abruptly quit their jobs before the state's primary elections, citing continuous threats from former President Donald Trump's supporters after the 2020 elections, multiple reports say.
Leslie Hoffman, the elected county recorder in Yavapai County, said on Friday that she was stepping down later this month after facing two years of "nastiness" from election deniers, The Washington Post reported.
Hoffman said elections director Lynn Constabile, who had worked for the county for 18 years, was leaving for the same reason, The Post reported. Constabile did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
Election officials across the country had been under attack after Trump lost the 2020 president election and falsely claimed that it was fraudulent. However, Trump had won Yavapai County in 2020.
Hoffman said, according to The Post: "I'm a Republican recorder living in a Republican county where the candidate that they wanted to win won by 2-to-1 in this county and still getting grief, and so is my staff.
Good thing the members of the Supreme Court are made of stronger stuff.
These election workers don't have the resources of the federal government to protect them, this has been going on for two years. The fact that they are still being threatened two years after the election is absurd.
What is the difference? That one person had a stable county job for 18 years and has to go job hunting now. Just an everyday person like you and me working at a job. You think this is ok?

Republicans face threats all the time form lefties. They just don’t complain about it like these people are. It’s not right but is part of public life. Extremists from both sides do it. Liberals have no moral high ground here.

Good (see post above)
Maybe it's time to play by the same rules
