Michigan Electors Say Clinton Supporters Sending Them Death Threats, Vicious Emails

At least one elector who’s due to cast a formal ballot electing Donald Trump to the presidency – in accordance with America’s constitutional Electoral College process – said he’s been receiving vicious messages, including death threats, from those who’d rather he cast his vote for Hillary Clinton.

Michael Banerian, 22, is supposed to join with 15 other Michigan electors on December 19 to vote for Trump. But Banerian said Trump opponents have been pressuring him to instead pick Clinton.

    “You have people saying ‘you’re a hateful bigot, I hope you die,'” he said, the Detroit News reported. “I’ve had people talk about shoving a gun in my mouth and blowing my brains out. And I’ve received dozens and dozens of those emails. Even the non-threatening-my-life emails are very aggressive.”

The Detroit News confirmed at least one of Banerian’s emailed messages included death threats – specifically, that the writer of the message would “put a bullet” in Banerian’s mouth.

Aw heck, send them to a safe space at one of the many universities in Michigan.

Maybe have a Vietnam Vet talk to them, such as how they were reviled and spit on when they returned to the States. This is nothing.

It should have been a felony when Trumpers were threatening delegates but it wasn't so...

They're still issuing threats at TOS, and here to a lesser extent.

If we had an uncorrupted Justice Department and FBI,  these threats would be thoroughly investigated and any perpetrators prosecuted.

Let's get these emails and letters out into public view.  Emails in particular should be traceable to the person who authored it, who can then be publicly exposed.
