Trump Excludes Polis From White House Governors Meeting

By: Parker Gordon | KDVR DENVER (KDVR) — President Donald Trump posted on Wednesday that two Democratic governors will not be invited to a bipartisan meeting next week. Gov. Jared Polis is one of them. “The invitations were sent to ALL Governors, other than two, who I feel are not worthy of being there,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, referring to Polis and Governor Wes Moore of Maryland. Trump said Polis was not invited to the governors’ meeting since former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters is serving her prison sentence. The post comes after Trump has repeatedly called for the release of former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, who was convicted for her role in a 2021 election security breach.

Griswold Makes Contingency Plans for “A Bunch of Election Deniers” Interfering in Colorado Elections

By: Jessica Porter | Denver7 The relationship between state elections officials and the Trump Administration is strained. DENVER — The FBI has invited state election officials to an unexpected meeting about the midterm elections, but Colorado officials are skeptical of the federal government’s intentions. "To prepare for the 2026 US midterm elections, your election partners at the FBI, DOJ, DHS, USPIS, and the EAC would like to invite you to a call where we can discuss our preparations for the cycle, as well as updates and resources we can provide to you and your staff… We look forward to speaking with you in support of the 2026 midterm elections,” wrote FBI staffer Kellie Hardiman in the email obtained by ABC News. The invitation, sent last week, comes as the...

ODNI Says Federal Law Supports Gabbard Role in Georgia Election Raid

By Ben Whedon | Just the News The FBI raided the Georgia facility this week as part of a criminal probe linked to the 2020 election. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence has defended DNI Tulsi Gabbard's presence at a Fulton County election hub for an FBI raid, asserting that such operations fall entirely within her purview. "Director Gabbard recognizes that election security is essential for the integrity of our republic and our nation’s security," ODNI spokeswoman Oliva Coleman said in a statement. "As DNI, she has a vital role in identifying vulnerabilities in our critical infrastructure and protecting against exploitation." "We know through intelligence and public reporting that electronic voting systems have been and are vulnerable...

Colorado Faces Federal Lawsuit as Griswold Refuses to Release Voter Data

By Marissa Ventrelli | Colorado Politics The U.S. Department of Justice has filed a lawsuit against Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold after she refused to provide the agency with certain voter information. Last week, the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division asked Griswold’s office to provide unredacted voter data, including full names, dates of birth, residential addresses, and driver’s license numbers. Federal authorities have sought voter data from more than 20 states, saying it’s part of project to ensure election security. The DOJ lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Denver, alleges that Griswold violated the federal Civil Rights Act by refusing to provide the records. READ THE FULL ARTICLE AT COLORADO POLITICS

Debunking the “Californians Turned Colorado Blue” Myth: Organic Change or Engineered Illusion?

By Mark Cook | Commentary, Article on X The claim that an influx of liberal Californians (or even broader interstate migration) single-handedly flipped Colorado from a Republican-leaning swing state to a reliably Democratic one collapses under even modest scrutiny of the numbers. Between 2000 and 2024, Colorado absorbed roughly 2.8 million gross domestic in-migrants, with Californians making up about 25% (≈685,000). This represents only 25–30% of the state’s total population growth and less than one-third of the 3.25 million net new registered voters the Colorado Secretary of State’s office claims were added in the same period. Voter-file models consistently show domestic migrants breaking roughly 32% Republican, 28% Democratic, and 40% Unaffiliated/Independent, a mix that i...

Trump Blasts Polis Over Continued Imprisonment of Tina Peters

By Washington Examiner Staff | Washington Examiner President Donald Trump took to Truth Social on Wednesday to scold Gov. Jared Polis (D-CO) regarding the case of former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, who was sentenced to nine years in prison in 2024 for charges of giving unauthorized individuals access to the county’s election systems.  Trump lambasted Polis as a “sleazebag” for denying the release of “an elderly woman.” The president said Peters was “unfairly convicted” and should not be in jail. “The SLEAZEBAG Governor of Colorado, Jared Polis, refuses to allow an elderly woman, Tina Peters, who was unfairly convicted of what the Democrats do, cheating on Elections, out of jail!” Trump posted. “She was convicted for tr...

Tina Peters’ attorney presses Governor Polis and Secretary Griswold to eliminate computer voting machines

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice Attorney John Case, who represents former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, has sent an open letter to Colorado Gov. Jared Polis and Secretary of State Jena Griswold urging the state to immediately discontinue electronic voting systems and return to in-person, hand-counted paper ballots. Case’s letter, dated October 21, outlines a series of concerns about the Dominion voting software used in 60 counties. It cites sworn testimony from two former Venezuelan election insiders who claim Dominion’s systems share code and design elements with Smartmatic software previously used in Venezuela—software the witnesses allege was developed to ensure predetermined outcomes. According to the letter, those sworn statements were part of federal court filings in...

Gold standard or clear failure? Colorado trails 36 nations on election rules.

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice Colorado’s election rulebook emphasizes convenience—automatic mail ballots, long voting windows and ballot harvesting—exactly where most countries draw hard lines. That philosophical split is why Colorado lands at 50 out of 100 in a new international survey, and why the authors behind it want an on-the-record conversation with the secretary of state. “We’d love to speak with your secretary of state… we’ll ask questions and she can ask questions,” said Gary Meyers, who co-authored the study with Jay DeLancy. Meyers explained that The Meyers Report is a long-running research group, active for more than forty years, with contributors spread across 30 countries. “We’re interested in truth, we’re interested in fairness,” he said, describing a team...
