According to a statement from Jena Griswold, Colorado Secretary of State Tina Peters deliberately compromised her own election materials in order to support Trump’s false claims. Griswold added that the jury’s verdict was unequivocal: no effort to compromise the security of our elections will be tolerated.
During the trial, the prosecution claimed that Peters had used an employee’s security badge to facilitate access to a person linked to Mike Lindell. With this action she had allowed someone, posing as an employee, to manipulate a Dominion Voting Systems hard drive.
