Colorado Governor Jared Polis has commuted the sentence of election conspiracy theorist Tina Peters, a decision following pressure from President Donald Trump. This aligns with President Trump's pattern of rewarding those who echoed his baseless claims of mass fraud as the cause of his 2020 election loss.
Peters, a 70-year-old former county clerk, was sentenced to nine years for a scheme to illegally copy her county’s election computer system. She is scheduled for release on June 1.
