Governor Polis Celebrates Colorado and America’s Safe and Secure Election System

DENVER - Governor Polis released the following statement on President Trump's conspiracy-laden remarks.

"I'm glad that the President is releasing documents, because the more we know about election threats, the more we can be prepared to protect the integrity and security of our elections. But the President's mad ramblings do nothing to actually improve election security and in fact undermine trust in our voting systems and election outcomes. The President has lost more than 60 court cases related to the 2020 election because many of his claims are false. Tackling the real threats against our elections requires bipartisan focus and action, not lists of personal grievances.

Colorado and the United States have safe and secure elections and that is thanks to the incredible election workers and bipartisan volunteers across our state and country who work every day to make that possible. Tonight, we heard the same tired list of grievances from the President. I condemn any attempted foreign or domestic interference in our elections and have taken action ahead of every election while I've been Governor by activating the Colorado National Guard to work with our Secretary of State to support election integrity with cybersecurity efforts. But so far there's been no evidence that any attempts at interference have been successful in Colorado. None of what was said tonight will change Colorado's all-paper-ballot approach to delivering safe and secure elections for voters in our state," said Governor Jared Polis.
