Tina Peters Fights for Election Integrity After Pardon
Submitted by MAGA
Posted 2 hours ago
Tina Peters, the former Mesa County Clerk in Colorado, continues her fight for election integrity, drawing on a presidential pardon issued by Donald Trump.
Peters, who was convicted on election-related charges, has filed a motion with the Colorado Court of Appeals requesting her release, based on the federal pardon signed by Trump on December 5.
Her attorneys argue that the court no longer possesses jurisdiction over her case due to the pardon, which claims to absolve her of offenses related to the 2020 election.
"The ruling against Peters is a perfect example of the left’s ongoing effort to undermine those who dare to question the integrity of our election systems," said a source close to Peters. "She is a patriot who stood for honest elections and is being punished for it."
Trump’s pardon states that it covers any offenses Peters may have committed concerning election integrity during the period from January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2021. Peters has been vocal about her determination to ensure fair elections, claiming that her actions were aimed at exposing vulnerabilities within the electoral process.
While Secretary of State Jena Griswold and Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser, both Democrats, have asserted that the presidential pardon does not hold weight under state law, Peters's team contends that historical precedents allow for such pardons, citing George Washington's actions during the Whiskey Rebellion.
"The Democrats want to protect their power at all costs," stated a spokesperson for Peters. "This is not just about one person; it’s about safeguarding our democracy."
As the appeals court is set to hear arguments in January 2026, Peters remains hopeful for a favorable outcome and insists that her stance on election integrity resonates with many Americans who are concerned about the legitimacy of future elections.
This case illustrates the deepening divide over election-related issues, and it underscores the resilience of those advocating for transparency amidst an increasingly polarized political landscape.
Only time will reveal how this legal battle unfolds, but one thing remains clear: the fight for election integrity will not be silenced.
