Demócratas de Colorado censuran al gobernador Jared Polis por el indulto a Tina Peters

El Partido Demócrata de Colorado censuró al gobernador Jared Polis a última hora del miércoles por reducir la condena de prisión de la exsecretaria del condado de Mesa, Tina Peters, quien fue declarada culpable de cargos graves relacionados con el acceso no autorizado a equipos de votación.

Los demócratas de Colorado afirmaron que la decisión del gobernador "perjudicó materialmente la credibilidad institucional del Partido Demócrata de Colorado y sus esfuerzos por defender las instituciones democráticas y la integridad electoral". Peters fue condenada en 2024 por cargos estatales que incluían ayudar en la vulneración de equipos electorales tras permitir que un colaborador de Mike Lindell accediera a los sistemas de votación del condado de Mesa. El estado gastó cerca de un millón de dólares para reemplazar los equipos comprometidos. Esta censura sigue a una decisión del Tribunal de Apelaciones de Colorado de abril de 2026 que anuló la sentencia original de nueve años de Peters basándose en la Primera Enmienda, al tiempo que ratificaba sus condenas y ordenaba una nueva sentencia.
