On February 7th, Tina Peters will go to trial for her role in exposing the rampant election fraud plaguing our nation. Tina is a whistleblower who took necessary steps to shed light on the truth of our electoral system. She has played a significant role in providing evidence that the voting machines are corrupt and fraudulent, making her the target of unrelenting political attacks. Tina is being persecuted for the information she revealed, which is why all our elected officials, including Congress, must stand with Tina Peters during her trial and call for the end of this politically motivated attack. Congress, stand with Tina Peters, stand with whistleblowers, stand with America!
In 2021, Tina Peters made headlines when she did a full backup of her county’s electronic voting machines prior to the State’s “Trusted Build” software update — a backup required by law. This backup contained proof that the elections in Mesa County were fraudulent, leading to nearly three years of constant political attacks to demonize and persecute Peters.
However, three forensic reports have proven Tina’s innocence and justified her actions. On September 15th, 2021, it was confirmed that the data described in the federal elections commission 2002 voting system standards mandated by Colorado law were indeed destroyed by the system vendor and the Colorado secretary of state office. On March 1, 2022, it was reported that Mesa County’s electronic voting systems contained 36 separate wireless devices, allowing connections to the internet. In a third report on March 19, 2022, it was found that there was the creation of shadow databases, enabling illegal software and vote swapping.
Tina’s trial, beginning on February 7th, will have nothing to do with these whistleblower efforts. Instead, she is being charged with attempting to influence a public official, which means she cannot bring up anything about the election fraud she exposed. The cards are intentionally stacked against her to demonize, persecute, and discredit the damning evidence she helped to expose.
Peters: They basically framed me and I was found guilty of two misdemeanors. One for lying to a judge that I hadn’t recorded when I was sitting there in the court — in the gallery — in the court when my chief deputy was in court. They basically took the iPad. I thought they broken my wrist. They got a search warrant, delayed a commissioner hearing, called me a sacrificial lamb—we could hear that on the recording—while they’re waiting 22 minutes to get a search warrant.
On Telegram, Peters called on her supporters to pack the courtroom and the streets outside the courthouse.
“Feb. 8 jury selection, impaneled and possibly opening arguments Feb. 9, then Feb. 12-16,19-21,” wrote Peters. “If I’m convicted they will escort me from the courtroom into jail custody straightaway. THIS should be National. If we don’t expose what we found here during this opportunity to have a huge crowd here this will get buried because the prosecution is not letting me say one thing about the real reason that they want to put me in prison. We need huge crowds in the courtroom and with signs outside on the streets here.”

Most crimes are committed by someone with a motive. I sure wish someone could explain what possible motive Ms. Peters had. Seems to most people she was only motivated by the truth.

BTW, has anyone heard from Boadicea? I hope she is doing well. I miss her.
Prosecutors say in April and May 2021 Peters allowed unauthorized individuals to access voting equipment during a sensitive security update and leaked voting machine passwords to the social media site Telegram.
The 68-year-old Peters faces three felony counts of attempting to influence a public servant; four felony counts related to impersonation and identity theft; and a misdemeanor count each of official misconduct, violating her duties and failing to comply with the secretary of state’s requirements.
Peters pleaded not guilty last September. In public speeches, she has expressed concerns about the integrity of the voting machines in Mesa County, particularly after voters declined to elect several conservative candidates during the 2021 Grand Junction municipal election.
Since then, Peters has been embraced by a community of conservatives who subscribe to unsubstantiated conspiracy theories of election fraud that spread after Biden won the presidency in 2020.
In her petition for an injunction Peters denied having broken any laws and said her requests for help went ignored by the district attorney, the secretary of state and the board of county commissioners.
Peters contends that Rubenstein in pursuing criminal charges “seeks to publicly punish Peters for her compliance with federal and Colorado election record retention statutes, for her public discussion of the integrity of digital voting systems, and for her petitions to the county board to abandon such.”
“We were happy to learn of the 10th circuit’s denial of Ms. Peters’ latest effort to delay a trial on the merits,” Rubenstein said via email. “We remain prepared to begin that trial, with a jury she selects, this week.”
District Attorney Daniel Rubenstein investigated Peters' claims of election fraud and discovered several instances of human error, rather than an attempt to change the results of an election.

In the US, we have freedom and don’t have to vote if we don’t want to.
Former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, whose efforts to uncover evidence of election fraud on her office’s election equipment have led to ten criminal charges, will not be going on trial this month.
Jury selection was scheduled to start on Friday. But at a pretrial hearing Tuesday, Peters told the judge she was firing her legal team and hiring new representation. In order to give those new attorneys time to get up to speed, Mesa County District Court Judge Matthew Barrett delayed the start of the trial to late July.
Her new trial is set to run from July 29 through Aug. 12.
