The GOP/MAGA harassment of election workers disgusts me

These people should be prosecuted.

Just another way they try to subvert the system and cheat at elections.

The irony is that many of those being harassed are GOP/MAGA. These ignorant idiots don’t even know who they’re harassing.

Exactly. Just like how they went after Ray E_pps - a MAGA follower who ended up in the crosshairs of MAGA conspiracy theories, such that his life was ruined and he lives in fear of the MAGA mob.

And the irony is that in the 2020 election we have since learned that it was in fact Republicans who did more to cheat than Democrats did.

Yup. Now this county of 500,000 people needs to find the fourth person to fill the position in less than a year.

“vacancy hopes to attract people who don’t mind badly misspelled death threats and boss who will undermine you if your actions aren’t sufficiently Republican friendly.”

“Last week, a top election official in Arizona, Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer, filed a defamation lawsuit against his fellow Republican, saying Lake’s blatant lies have cost him friends and lifelong relationships. Her malicious incitement has also resulted in death threats, he said, and harassment aimed at him and his wife.

“Rather than accept political defeat, rather than get a new job, [Lake] has sought to undermine confidence in our elections and has mobilized millions of her followers against me,” Richer wrote in the Arizona Republic. “Her defamatory allegations have unleashed violent vitriol and other dire consequences.”

I wonder why the GOP wants the right to harass people?

The only thing these people understand is a taste of their own medicine.

Two things are true though:
1) Democrats generally are not as insane as Republicans.
2) Democrats are always held to a higher standard, including legally.

Richer has problems of his own. He his not being harassed because of Lake; he is being harassed because of his own actions. Lake is simply bringing that information to the people of Maricopa:
