We are less than five months away from election day and as we deal with a contentious political atmosphere, there are concerns about potential violence. Surveys show local election officials are worried about the safety of their colleagues, and many have already experienced harassment and intimidation.  Our two guests today are no exception. They’ve faced threats directly – one of them says he got more dangerous threats as an election official than when he was a homicide detective -- and today, we'll learn about how they're working with local governments to ensure everyone, including voters, stays safe on election day.  Learn more about our guests: https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/shownotes Sign-up for our bonus weekly email: https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/email Become an INSIDER for ad-free episodes: https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/insider This episode was sponsored by: Go to crunchlabs.com/NEWSWORTHY to sign your kids up for a limited Camp CrunchLabs subscription and two boxes free, which is a $60 value.
