New Tolerance Campaign Unveils Report on Presidential “Candidate Hate”
Washington, DC — Today the New Tolerance Campaign (NTC) unveiled “Candidate Hate,” a report cataloging violent threats and vicious rhetoric targeted at the two major-party candidates for President of the United States in 2024: Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.
In order to provide a full and balanced perspective, the report also lists hate and threats made against President Joe Biden, who was the presumptive Democratic nominee until July 21, 2024.
“NTC intentionally chose not to wade into election politics when we launched HateMap.com in July, but it’s impossible to ignore the prevalence of extreme rhetoric, death threats, and political violence directed at candidates in the 2024 U.S. presidential election,” NTC President Gregory T. Angelo stated. “The NTC ‘Candidate Hate’ report provides elected officials, civil servants, the media, and the public with a raw, unvarnished index of hate and violence directed at President Trump, VP Kamala Harris, and President Biden throughout a heated election cycle in which the GOP nominee was twice targeted for assassination.”
The 36-page report is available online here.
