Electors around the country are being harassed with a barrage of emails, phone calls and letters — and even death threats — in an effort to block Donald Trump from being voted in as president by the Electoral College on Monday.
The bullying is overwhelming Sharon Geise’s tech devices, but not her resolve to support Trump.
The Mesa, Arizona, grandmother woke up Wednesday morning to more than 1,500 emails demanding she not carry out her legal duty to vote for the president-elect.
“They just keep coming and coming,” Geise told The Post, estimating she’s received more than 50,000 emails since the election. “They’re overpowering my iPad.”

Didn't Obama turn down their request for federal protection? Seems like I remember a veteran group willing to step in...
This is just shameful no matter what side you are on.
I agree with Stosh....if you've never been taught to lose gracefully this is what happens.

This is what happens when EVERYONE gets a 'participation' trophy and EVERYONE is always a winner.
Graceful losing is a dead skill.
This going beyond button hurt and in to fascist overthrow.
The effort to deny the electoral vote to Trump was launched shortly after the Nov. 8 election.
The Clinton campaign came out in support of the effort Monday, backing an open letter from 10 Democratic electors to National Intelligence Director James Clapper calling for an intelligence briefing on what role Russian hackers may have played in the election.
Death threats because Hillary didn't win. Are you people serious?

And just like their friends the 'moderate Muslims' you hear nothing from our liberal friends on ATS condemning this insanity. They are complicit in their silence.

I'm as left as they come, pretty damn near socialist - and I have never issued a death threat in my life. All my liberal friends in Austin, Texas haven't either - and I have a LOT of liberal friends.

Now, sending a letter that encourages the electors to vote against Trump? Nothing wrong with that - unless you want to ban free speech.
