The Big Lie and far-right conspiracies around the 2020 election continue to cast a dark shadow on the nation. Last month, the Colorado State Legislature voted on a resolution urging Congress to PASS election reform. In our own state, elected officials who continue to spread the Big Lie voted in opposition.
While Colorado sets the standard of how elections should be run, our state is not immune from the conspiracy theories. The facts are clear, our work to protect elections and prevent voter suppression is far from over.
That’s why we need to elect a Secretary of State who will continue to fight for us.
My name is Jena Griswold. In 2018, I was elected as the first democratic Secretary of State in Colorado since 1958, the first democratic woman Secretary of State in Colorado’s history, and only the 10th woman in Colorado’s history to hold the statewide constitutional office of governor, attorney general, secretary of state, or treasurer!
