Election conspiracy theorist Tina Peters has been convicted of tampering with voting machines in Mesa County, Colorado, in the aftermath of the 2020 election. On Monday, Peters was found guilty of seven charges related to her efforts to grant unauthorized individuals access to country voting machines in order to prove false claims that the election had been fraudulently stolen from Donald Trump.
In March, Peters pleaded not guilty to 10 criminal charges, including seven felonies, in connection to a scheme to use her position as Mesa County clerk to transfer voting data from the machines to allies of former President Trump. She resigned from her role as Mesa County clerk in 2023.
Peters' sentencing is scheduled to take place on October 3.
"This community has suffered greatly from the dishonesty, lack of transparency and refusal of Ms. Peters to take accountability," Mesa County District Attorney Daniel P. Rubinstein said in response to the verdict. "No single elected official, or even branch of government, is above the law or should be allowed to act without those checks and balances."
Despite the criminal charges against her, Peters has spent the last several years unsuccessfully attempting to leverage her status as a martyr for Trump's election conspiracy theories to gain additional political power within Colorado.
In 2022, Peters came third in the Republican primary for Colorado Secretary of State, the role that oversees the state's elections. Unsurprisingly, Peters accused election officials of having cheated her of the nomination and refused to concede her primary loss.
In February of that same year, Peters was arrested after attempting to kick a police officer serving a search warrant for her iPad in connection with allegations that she had illegally recorded a court hearing for one of her deputies involved in the election security breach.
On Monday, Peters responded to her conviction on X, formerly Twitter, writing that she was "taking a day off to grieve for the people that have been hurt by Dominion brand voting systems and the Secretary of State's attorneys' actions to steal their vote and their voice."
"This is a sad day for our nation and the world. But we WILL win in the end," she added, tagging fellow conspiracy theorists Alex Jones, Mike Lindell, and Elon Musk in her post.

hopefully she'll get general population. oh wait, prisons are filled with maga types...
As soon as I read that she had told 2 coworkers she as fucked I suspected she would be convicted. I hope the took her into custody as soon as the verdict was read and aren't waiting for sentencing.
She's going to try and claim, on appeal, the judge didn't allow Dominion Systems Execs to testify at trial. The trial judge ruled that beyond the scope of Peter's charges.
