6. I love this idea.

Even though it would hurt some innocent people, there really aren't perfect options when faced with something as monumental as the subversion of our Democracy that has taken 240+ years to become as responsive to the will of the people as we have so far progressed to.

This idea only works the way nuclear weapons supposedly work, as a deterrent. If the election were to be successfully stolen it would amount to retribution, but would not unwind the damage. So this approach has to be talked of far and wide NOW, before the fact.

What you suggest is an open public tactic, which is always my preference. If it worked it would likely negate any need for what I wrote of. But they are not mutually exclusive options.
