Tina Peters, a former Colorado Republican county clerk, was sentenced to nine years in prison for crimes related to a breach of her county’s voting system. Peters, a vocal supporter of the false claim that Donald Trump lost the 2020 election due to ballot fraud, was found guilty of multiple criminal counts. The judge condemned her actions, calling her a "charlatan" and dismissing her request for probation. Peters’ breach involved using another person’s security badge to access the voting system. Her conviction adds to the ongoing national debate over election integrity, as Trump continues to claim his 2020 loss was fraudulent.
