“Head of Colorado County Clerk Association on the chaos caused by Tina Peters, rebuilding voter confidence and what’s next for elections”

“Matt Crane, the head of the Colorado County Clerks Association, said questions of election security are the impetus for any lingering doubts – and he expects the conversations to continue for some time.

“If anybody thinks it's over, they're out of their minds because this is going to go on the reverberations of this for a long time yet to come, and it's going to be a marathon, not a sprint to try to rebuild voter confidence,” Crane told Colorado Matters Host Ryan Warner. “But as long as we still have candidates out there who refuse to say that they'll trust the results of the election based on if they win or lose, we've got big problems and a lot of work to do.”

Ryan Warner: Let's start with Tina Peters, whom you've called in the past, a low-information clerk. You were in Grand Junction to address the court before that nine-year sentence was handed down. Why was that important to you?

Matt Crane: Well, District Attorney Rubenstein called and asked me to come and provide an impact statement about the impacts that Tina's actions have had on election officials here in Colorado and across the country, and on elections generally, voter confidence, some of the violent rhetoric around elections. And my message to the judge yesterday, I was grateful for the opportunity to go and deliver remarks on behalf of clerks here in Colorado and across the country. But my message yesterday to the judge was, the damage done by Tina has been immeasurable for a lot of different reasons because of death threats that clerks now face, because people have tried to intimidate clerks into doing illegal activities like Tina did. It's impossible to underestimate the damage that Tina's done.

Warner: You spoke of the impacts to clerks and clearly to a deterrence as well here. So do you think there's a deterrent effect?

Crane: Well, I certainly hope so. I mean, I think that some of that's to be born out in the future here, but I certainly hope so. I mean, it's very clear that if you break the law in this way and if you undermine our election systems, and let's be clear, this wasn't just a Colorado issue. Tina by letting her voting system image get on the internet, allows bad actors anywhere in the world to look at that voting system image, try to find pathways, a roadmap to be able to do nefarious things, and then if they ever got physical access to these components, they could try to do something nefarious. So it's not just a Mesa issue or a Colorado issue, it's a national issue of election security that Tina violated here. So my hope is that with this strong penalty, that it will deter people.

Seems to me all she really did was intervene and insure a record and a backup of the data was made to ensure a record was kept after there was a chance it could all be deleted and all chance of understanding in its fullest sense what transpired.

9 years...satisfies the lefties

Betting many here hope she dies in there as well after being brutalised
All the while celebrating the release and allowing real violent crims to predate the communnity

What a fked up world
