Former President Donald Trump’s supporters were once 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 also admitted that she agrees with the ruling, even as Trump prepares to appeal. “The provision in the Constitution to stop insurrectionists from holding office is there for a reason,” she said. “Trump incited the insurrection. There shouldn’t be a loophole that allows a president to violate the oath of office and be on the ballot again.”
Griswold acknowledged that the threat atmosphere had been making it difficult to work around but promised she could not give in against extremists. “I will not be intimidated,” she said. “We cannot allow these people trying to steal elections and using rhetoric to incite violence… to not be opposed with the truth. I’ll be as smart as possible with my security issues, but I am not going to be intimidated by Donald Trump or anybody else on the MAGA right.”
