Election workers testify to Jan. 6 committee about death threats, harassment from Trump supporters

State and local election officials on Tuesday told the House Jan. 6 committee that they suffered the backlash from President Donald Trump’s supporters who blamed them for his loss in the 2020 election.

The committee zeroed in on the threats and harassment against a mother and daughter who were working the polls in Georgia during the 2020 election.

“It’s turned my life upside down,” said Wandrea Moss, a Georgia elections worker. “I no longer give out my business card. I don’t transfer calls. I don’t want anyone knowing my name. I don’t want to go anywhere with my mom because she might yell my name out over the grocery aisle or something.
