Unlike bitcoin core, electrum is no full client, meaning it does not store a full copy of the blockchain.
Electrum gets transaction data relevant to your addresses from servers and verifies this using block headers.
Seems like one of those steps is causing issues for you. I'd try connecting to another electrum server.

If you are prepared to post the transaction's ID here we could provide more help. To get it click electrum's history tab, then right click the top transaction and select details from the list that appears. A new window should open with the transaction ID in a text box at the top. Copy that and post it here.
If you don't want to post it here search for it on this page.

If that website says it's unconfirmed then keep submiting the transaction ID to this website until it says acceleration successful. Afterwards the viabtc mining pool will confirm your transaction for you (probably within 24 hours).
