Colorado Election Deniers Did Not Fare Well In The Primary

The Monday after the Colorado GOP’s state assembly in April, state Sen. Jim Smallwood wasn’t panicking. Sure, the event amounted to a celebration of election denial, but these gatherings attract die-hards who don’t represent the broader electorate, Smallwood said. “There wasn’t a single statewide race that surprised me,” Smallwood, a more moderate Republican, said Wednesday morning after a Tuesday election that saw the most vocal Trumpists and aspiring subverters of democracy lose resoundingly. Tina Peters, the indicted Mesa County clerk and nationally known Big Lie foot solider, was in third place out of three candidates in the GOP primary for secretary of state as of Wednesday morning.
