Congresswoman Claudia Tenney received a threatening e-mail shortly after a man opened fire on members of Congress and others on a baseball field.

The subject line read, ‘‘One down, 216 to go...’’

That’s according to the New York Republican’s spokeswoman, Hannah Andrews, who said her office alerted Capitol Police.

There are 238 Republicans in the House, but 217 voted for a bill that would repeal and replace President Barack Obama’s health law. It was unclear whether the e-mail writer was referring to that vote.
