Tina Peters, the former county clerk who was convicted in a scheme to breach voting systems in search of evidence of election fraud in 2020, has been granted clemency by Colorado Gov. Jared Polis.
In the clemency letter, Polis said Peters' nearly nine-year sentence for nonviolent offenses was "extremely unusual and lengthy" for a first-time offender, and said she would be released on parole effective June 1, 2026.
Peters, a former Mesa County clerk, was convicted on charges of giving an individual affiliated with MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, a Trump ally, access to the election software she used for her county.
Election officials in Colorado have pushed back for years against Peters' claims about the 2020 election and have said there is no proof of election interference in the state.

A firefighter was killed and 10 more people were injured after a massive explosion and fire ripped through a lumber company in Maine, authorities said. The blast is being described as a "mass casualty incident." Stephanie Ramos reports.
Foreclosures fell 8% from the previous month but are up 18% compared to a year ago, according to real estate data firm ATTOM.
