Colorado Governor Jared Polis weighs clemency for jailed clerk Tina Peters, citing harsh sentence and elderly inmate concerns.
Colorado Governor Jared Polis is considering clemency for 70-year-old former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, who is serving a nine-year sentence for election-related misconduct, calling the punishment "harsh" and noting concerns about elderly inmates.
Polis, who has not made a final decision, plans to consult multiple parties before acting.
Peters, incarcerated since 2022, may become eligible for community corrections or early release within two years under Colorado’s earned time policy.
The case has drawn national attention, including from former President Donald Trump, who issued an invalid pardon and threatened federal funding cuts, prompting pushback from state officials and county clerks who stress the need to uphold election integrity.
