Colorado Election Denier Tina Peters to Consult in California County

Shasta County, a region known for its embrace of election denialism, is planning to hire Tina Peters as an elections consultant. Peters, a former Colorado clerk, recently completed a prison sentence related to her actions challenging election results.

Clint Curtis, Shasta County's top election official, intends to appoint Peters to replace his deputy, who is on medical leave. Curtis stated that Peters would not have access to the county's voting systems. The move has drawn attention due to Peters's prominent role in the election denial movement and her recent incarceration.
