Grand jury to investigate allegations that a far-right Colorado Republican tampered with election equipment https://www.alternet.org/2022/01/tina-peters/ In Colorado, a state that President Joe Biden won by 14% in 2020, Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters is among the far-right MAGA Republicans who has promoted the Big Lie and false claims that the election was stolen from former President Donald Trump — a conspiracy theory that has been repeatedly debunked. Now, according to the Colorado Sun, a grand jury in Mesa County is investigating allegations that Peters tampered with election equipment. The grand jury, according to Sun reporter Thy Vo, “accepted the case” on January 12. “Peters, a Republican who was barred from overseeing the 2021 election by the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office, has been under criminal investigation by local, state and federal authorities for months,” Vo reports. “Peters has spread baseless claims about the 2020 presidential election being stolen and has been facing scrutiny since she allegedly allowed an unauthorized person to attend a sensitive Dominion Voting Systems software update in May. Photos of passwords taken during the update were then posted online.” Peters was among the speakers at MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell’s “Cyber Symposium” event in South Dakota in August. Lindell, a leading promoter of the Big Lie, is being sued for defamation by Dominion for making the false claim that its equipment was used to help Biden and his Democratic allies steal the election. On Thursday morning, January 13, Mesa County District Attorney Dan Rubenstein and Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser issued an official statement on the case. “Over the past few months,” Rubenstein and Weiser explained, “we have made progress in the multi-agency investigation. This investigation will be thorough and guided by the facts and the law. More information will be made available when the prosecutors are ethically and legally permitted to provide additional details. To maintain the impartiality of the investigation, we have no further comment at this time.”
What better place to announce your re-election bid than the steps of the courthouse where a grand jury is about to indict you? Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters announces reelection campaign amid new grand jury investigation Peters, who has spread baseless claims about the 2020 presidential election being stolen, has been under scrutiny since she allegedly allowed an unauthorized person to attend a sensitive Dominion Voting Systems software update in May https://coloradosun.com/2022/01/13/tina-peters-grand-jury-investigation/ Standing in front of the Mesa County Justice Center where a grand jury will weigh possible criminal charges against her, Tina Peters asked about three dozen cheering supporters if they wanted her to “stay and fight” and then announced she will run for a second term as Mesa County Clerk and Recorder. The rally came on the same day that prosecutors announced that a Mesa County grand jury will investigate allegations that official misconduct by Peters compromised election equipment. The grand jury, a panel of citizens that can be convened by prosecutors to conduct an investigation and determine whether charges should be filed against someone, accepted the case Wednesday. Peters, a Republican who was barred from overseeing the 2021 election by the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office, has been under criminal investigation by local, state and federal authorities for months. Peters has spread baseless claims about the 2020 presidential election being stolen and has been facing scrutiny since she allegedly allowed an unauthorized person to attend a sensitive Dominion Voting Systems software update in May. Photos of passwords taken during the update were then posted online. “Over the past few months, we have made progress in the multi-agency investigation,” Mesa County District Attorney Dan Rubenstein and Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser said in a joint written statement Thursday morning. “This investigation will be thorough and guided by the facts and the law. More information will be made available when the prosecutors are ethically and legally permitted to provide additional details. To maintain the impartiality of the investigation, we have no further comment at this time.” At the rally Thursday afternoon, Peters promised her supporters that new evidence will come out soon to corroborate her allegations that the 2020 election in Mesa County was manipulated by outside forces. She said the new information was not in the first forensic report that she has falsely claimed shows proof of voter fraud. (More about this idiot at above url)
If this loser won , then it would've been all fair and square.......right!!!!!! Pro-Trump candidate in Florida is blaming election fraud for his humiliating defeat There was a congressional election this week in Florida's 20th congressional district, giving the win to Democrat Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick to succeed the late Rep. Alcee Hastings, who died in April 2021. While McCormick was expected to win in the heavily Democratic district, her GOP rival Jason Mariner filed a lawsuit claimingthere was a problem with the ballots in Palm Beach and Broward Counties. "Now they called the race, I did not win, so they say, but that does not mean that they lost either, it does not mean that we lost," said Mariner. “And we’ll also have some stuff coming out that we’ve recently discovered,” he said. According to the final tally, McCormick won with 78.7 percent of the vote, while Mariner received only 19.6 percent. Writing for MSNBC, Steve Benen contends that while the merits of Mariner's lawsuit will play out in court, it could be a worrisome sign that more and more Republican politicians will claim voter fraud or irregularities as a means to challenge their election losses in the future. "What matters here is not just conspiracy theories, pointless litigation, and partisan whining about voters' verdicts," Benen writes. "Rather, the far more unsettling concern is the establishment of a new normal in Republican politics — one in which the only election results many in the GOP consider legitimate are the ones in which Democratic candidates lose."
Why hasn't @Buy1Sell2 commented in this thread? Isn't he against election tampering/fraud/crimes? Or is that only when Republicans aren't doing it? Dumbest, most hypocritical, generation, ever.
