Colorado’s Secretary of State Jena Griswold faces heat after an audio recording was released.
Turns out her office allegedly leaked about 600 sensitive voting machine passwords online.
The exposed info sat unnoticed on her website for months, finally being taken down in October.
Griswold claimed these were only “partial” passwords.
Still, county clerks reportedly found out about the mess from the GOP, not her.
This demands further investigation.
Some even calling for her to resign.
But the future AG has his eye on her.
The @cologop exposed the corruption, and we thank The Gateway Pundit for delivering the truth to the nation. @COSecofState Jena Griswold has shown she is willing to cover up and lie – she must resign IMMEDIATELY. #ResignJena #ElectionIntegrity #ExposeTheTruth@mattgaetz… https://t.co/Ek6rjdN6w4

The Gateway Pundit reports:
The Colorado GOP has released an audio that reveals Secretary of State Jena Griswold and her team deliberately concealed the exposure of sensitive voting machine passwords to avoid a media firestorm.
The Gateway Pundit reported that Griswold’s office inadvertently published approximately 600 BIOS passwords for election equipment across 63 of Colorado’s 64 counties, according to the Colorado GOP affidavit.
This alarming breach, which first came to light in August, is believed to have occurred as early as June—right before the state’s primary election. Surprisingly, these sensitive passwords remained accessible on her website until late October.
Griswold did not notify the county clerks of this breach, and they only found out when the Colorado GOP released it.
During an interview with Kyle Clark of 9News, Griswold attempted to downplay the severity of the leak, referring to the exposed passwords as “partial.” She claimed that they were only one of two passwords required to operate the election systems, a dubious assertion that does little to assuage fears about election security.
Critics point out that unlike the redacted, outdated passwords from the case of former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, Griswold’s passwords were not outdated and posed a real risk.
The Colorado GOP’s audio recordings, released Thursday, reveal a disturbing conversation among Griswold’s staff, where they strategized on how to avoid a “media storm” over the breach.
Oops. The cats out of the bag.
Now what are they going to do?
LISTEN Here:
Don’t worry.
Our guy Gaetz will be on the case!
