Shortly after the sentence, Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold released a statement:

“Tina Peters has been sentenced to nine years of incarceration for her dangerous attempts to break into her own election equipment to prove Trump’s ‘Big Lie.’ We will not allow anyone to threaten our elections.

“Colorado’s elections are the nation’s gold standard. I am proud of how we have responded to the first insider elections breach in the nation and look forward to another secure and successful election in November.”
