MAGA Election Official Immediately Spews Conspiracies After Conviction
thedailybeast.com

Hours after being convicted of tampering with voting machines in Colorado in the name of Donald Trump, former Mesa County clerk Tina Peters griped that the outcome was a “sad day for our nation and the world” while continuing to spout false election-related conspiracy theories about “vote-flipping software that is basically in Serbia.”

Peters was found guilty Monday on seven of ten charges after she granted unauthorized individuals access to county voting machines in order to transfer data to Trump allies. Peters faces up to 22 years in prison.

Later in the day, Peters responded to her newfound status as a felon by posting Bible quotes and spreading baseless claims about election fraud.

They are sowing seeds of chaos before the election at every opportunity. A reasonable judge, seeing no remorse can give a longer sentence.

Edit: Sowing! GArr!

That's an understatement! They are -- in their own words -- "recruiting an army of 100,000" delusional election-fraud muppets just like this bitch.
