Peters was convicted in 2024 after prosecutors showed she facilitated unauthorized access to Mesa County voting equipment and helped expose sensitive system data. Her actions were driven by the explosion of far-right conspiracy theories that the 2020 election was stolen from President Donald Trump through voting machines that switched votes to help former President Joe Biden win.
The Colorado judge who sentenced Peters to nine years in prison called her a “charlatan” who peddled “snake oil” and said she showed no remorse for her actions.
But Gov. Jared Polis (D) commuted Peters’ sentence last month, after months of pressure from Trump, MAGA fanatics, and election deniers. In Polis’ letter to Peters informing her that her sentence would be commuted, Polis wrote that Peters learned her lesson.
“Importantly, your application demonstrates taking responsibility for your crimes, and a commitment to follow the law going forward,” Polis said.
Heck of a job pardonning her, Democratic Gov Jaerd Polis. With dems like you we dont even need republicans.
What are you doing Colorado? You have a majority population of democrats to choose your leadership from and went with crap.
No entitlement like born again, far right entitlement
As far as trying to steal elections, the “they’re” is more like “we’re”.
Every accusation is an admission.
“There’s no way they won an election that we rigged so thoroughly without cheating!”
Throw her back in, and bring Jared this time too
Seriously, fuck Jared. Maybe not prison, but goddamn was he a jackass on this one.
Maybe the point was to prevent them from making her into a martyr.
They kind of already did. I’d see signs - even on businesses - that said “Free Tina Peters”.
Like she was some political prisoner or something.
This bitch should have served all the years she deserves.
JFC.
Thank GOD Colorado has a DEMOCRAT Governor! OTHERWISE we Might be Letting ELECTION DENIERS out of Prisons!
-VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO!
Here is the election results from Tina Peters county where she claimed massive voter fraud:
Kanye West got 197 votes Trump won by a huge majority. Now they expect idiots to believe that the people of LA (Commiefornia), are actually all trying to vote Maga.Does not seem to have learned her lesson.
Seems like some well-meaning citizens could help teach her.
Just shove her in a wood chipper at this point.
SHE LEARNED HER LESSON EH POLIS.
When justice is not delivered by the formal system, people’s justice is the last resort.
Y’all really could have helped by clarifying who “they” is.
gestures vaguely
They are them
