MAGA’s Most Famous Prisoner Is Free
Newly out of prison, Tina Peters is back to trying to prove election fraud.
Tina Peters, a former clerk and recorder in Mesa County, Colorado, was recently released from a Colorado prison after serving nearly nine years. She was convicted in 2024 on charges related to tampering with voting equipment under her control in 2020. Tina, who was previously a victim of the "MAGA" movement, was granted clemency by Colorado Governor Jared Polis despite strong opposition from prosecutors, election officials, and his clemency board.
Upon her release, Tina made her way to the White House, where she dined with President Trump and discussed her prison experience and her views on voting integrity. She has since become a prominent figure in the "stolen-election" movement and has appeared on podcasts and livestreams, demanding reforms to prevent alleged fraud in the upcoming midterm elections.
