And they said we were making the threats of violence and misogyny up.
https://www.ralstonreports.com/blog/sample-voicemails-left-state-democratic-chairwoman-roberta-lange
One caller suggested she would be hung or burned. (He brilliantly left a callback number.)
Another suggested she is a "corrupt b--tch."
Still another said it will come "back to bite you in the ass."
This is what State Democratic Party Chairwoman Roberta Lange has been subjected to since Bernie Sanders supporters became incensed at Saturday's state convention.
I have posted three of the vociemails here -- there are more to come. They are incredible. Warning: Language.
UPDATED: Here are transcripts of some of the voicemails -- and I have attached some horrific texts Lange received, too.
MALE CALLER: Hi Roberta Lange. This is a citizen of the United States of America and I just wanted to let you know that I think people like you should be hung in a public execution to show this world that we wont stand for this sort of corruption. I dont know what kind of money they are paying to you, but I dont know how you sleep at night. You are a sick, twisted piece of shit and I hope you burn for this! You can return my call at [edited out for TOS]. Id love to go into further detail with you about this, though I am sure you dont have courage to do so. You cowardless bitch, running off the stage! I hope people find you.

I assume the calls were from all over - why would their hatred be limited to the state at hand?
