Partai Demokrat Colorado mengecam Gubernur Jared Polis atas pemberian keringanan hukuman kepada Tina Peters

Partai Demokrat Colorado mengecam Gubernur Jared Polis pada Rabu malam karena memangkas masa hukuman penjara mantan panitera Mesa County, Tina Peters, yang dinyatakan bersalah atas dakwaan tindak pidana terkait akses tidak sah ke peralatan pemungutan suara.

Partai Demokrat Colorado menyatakan bahwa keputusan gubernur tersebut “telah secara material merugikan kredibilitas institusional Partai Demokrat Colorado serta upaya untuk mempertahankan institusi demokrasi dan integritas pemilu.” Peters dinyatakan bersalah pada tahun 2024 atas tuduhan negara bagian, termasuk membantu pembobolan peralatan pemilu setelah mengizinkan rekan Mike Lindell mengakses sistem pemungutan suara Mesa County. Negara bagian tersebut menghabiskan hampir satu juta dolar untuk mengganti peralatan yang disusupi. Kecaman ini menyusul keputusan Pengadilan Banding Colorado pada April 2026 yang membatalkan hukuman sembilan tahun asli Peters atas dasar Amandemen Pertama, sambil tetap mempertahankan vonisnya dan memerintahkan hukuman ulang.
