A Democratic Governor Just Failed Our Democracy in the Worst Possible Way

Tina Peters, one of the few election deniers to actually face consequences for criminal conduct related to the 2020 election, will be a free woman in less than two weeks' time. Rather than receiving leniency from a fellow election-denying MAGA leader, Peters' freedom will be thanks to a Democratic politician who should know better, Colorado Gov. Jared Polis. Last week, Polis tried to quietly announce that he had commuted her nine-year prison sentence, but the news immediately caught fire.
