Colorado Governor Jared Polis (D) said that in his last stretch in office he is considering clemency for Tina Peters, the former Mesa County clerk who was jailed over an unauthorized breach of voting systems when seeking to validate President Donald Trump’s claims of fraud in the 2020 election.
Peters, 70, was convicted last year on state charges after participating in the 2021 breach and is serving a nine-year sentence in a Pueblo women’s prison.
In an interview with CBS Colorado on Thursday, Polis told journalists he was weighing clemency and described the prison sentence handed to Peters as “harsh” and implied he was reviewing her case alongside others involving elderly inmates.
“She got a sentence that was harsh. It was a nine-year sentence,” Polis said. “We always look at people’s sentences, and when you have people that are elderly, and we’re looking at this across a number of people – people in their 70s and 80s in our system – how much of a threat to society are they? And we balance that in a way that makes sure that they can spend their last few years at home.”
The campaign for Peters’ release has been championed consistently at the highest level by President Donald Trump, who, in December, branded Polis a “SLEAZEBAG” for refusing to free her. Trump argued Peters was an “elderly woman” and “cancer survivor” persecuted by Democrats – her age now a factor that Polis has hitched his considerations to.
Trump previously attempted to intervene in Peters’ case, even issuing a pardon last year, but because Peters was convicted under state law, it carried no legal weight. Trump later blocked federal funding to Colorado, escalating tensions with the Democratic governor.

I actually had some respect for Moynihan.
Dominion, Smartmatic, Sequoia
..all derived from common software stacks
Trump’s investigators have enough to bring down the House, Senate and 71 other corrupt countries. Polis needs to do the right thing immediately, as PDJT has offered a chance for him here.
Polis probably gamed-out that having her die in prison isn’t going to help his Presidential ambitions. It’s also possible Trump cut a deal with him or threatened him with something.
Both limbs are part of the same fraud elephant in the room.
Bingo!
He wants this story, an atrocity, to go away. It won’t.
ANY STATE that uses ANY of these CHEATING MACHINES MUST BE INVESTIGATED!!
‘Massive fraud’ in Georgia’s Fulton County ...... 315,000 unsigned ballots illegally used.
After 5 years of reassuring everyone the 2020 election was honest and true,
a Fulton County official admits to verifying 315,000 votes in 2020 ... that
were unsigned and should not have been approved.
Exactly. He knows he’s the one who should be in jail and may soon be in jail, and he wants to buy some favor with those who knew his role in putting a hero in prison for actually doing her job against the fraud.
Dominionm, which is the same thing because the Smartmatic software that was designed to steal elections is running Dominion from servers in Belgrade, Serbia. The whistleblowing engineers who actually did the theft have cooperated with Gary Berntsen and his Venequelan research partner and are now cooperating with the DOJ, and can testify exactly how they did the steal in all these states. One guy who has spoken directly with Maduro also says that Maduro has admitted that 2020 was stolen by them and he can tell exactly how they did it.
I suspect they’re going to find both Polis and Griswold on the payroll of Cartel del Sol. And they’re going to find that Venezuela stole the election to put both of them in office as well.
“He’s not doing this out of the goodness of his heart.”
indeed ... trump is already putting the screws to colorado because of the persecution of Peters, vetoing a Fed-funded colorado water project just a couple of days ago ...
Not necessary. All she has to have is copies of voting registrations vs mailin ballots accepted. In one polling place in Detroit there were >100K more ballots counted than registered voters.
THAT is the level of corruption that put ALLLLLL democratic politicos into office. That is why mailins and illegals are vital.
If the real Colorado election fraudsters violated federal law, DOJ should lock THEM up.
DOJ must stop election fraud or else all reforms will be reversed after the next rigged election.
Yup...something’s up...wanting to keep Fed eyes off Colorado...
A lot of people belong in jail...and some belong in the ground!
I suspect Trump has made him an offer he can’t refuse without waking up next to a horse’s head.
Indeed, Venezuelan software developers made it happen and have continued with developments that ultimately delivered fraud-generating voting machines into 72 countries.
CIA Barry knew all about the fraudulent potential of these machines.
Don’t hold your breath on this...
