Election Denier Barred from Overseeing 2022 Elections

May 11, 2022 · 4:00 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“For the second year in a row, a judge has ruled that GOP Mesa County Clerk and Recorder Tina Peters and Deputy Clerk Belinda Knisley are barred from overseeing an election — this time, the June primaries and November general election,” the Denver Post reports.

“Peters, an election denier who is seeking the Republican nomination for secretary of state, is also facing multiple investigations surrounding allegations of an election equipment security breach and campaign finance violations, including 10 criminal counts from a grand jury indictment.”
