Colorado election officials denounce 'sham lawsuit' targeting voter rolls

Colorado is the latest state to have its election system targeted by a lawsuit from a fringe conservative group repeating debunked claims of widespread fraud.

Two Colorado voters and the Missouri-based nonprofit United Sovereign Americans filed suit against Colorado state officials and U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland in the U.S. District Court of Colorado on Tuesday, alleging that its analysis of Colorado voter rolls shows the results of the state’s 2022 midterm elections were “unreliable.”

Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold, who is named as a defendant in the lawsuit alongside Attorney General Phil Weiser, called the complaint “a sham lawsuit filed by election deniers as a part of a national campaign to undermine voter confidence.”

“Colorado leads the nation in election security and accessibility,” Griswold said. “I look forward to the lawsuit’s quick dismissal.”
