Skip to Main ContentTrump Says He's Pardoning Voter Fraud 'Patriot.' There's Just One Problem.President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social on Thursday he's issuing a full pardon to Tina Peters, a former Colorado county clerk convicted on charges related to attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. But there's just one problem: Peters was convicted on state charges, and there's nothing the executive office can do about those."Tina is sitting in a Colorado prison for the 'crime' of demanding Honest Elections," Trump wrote.
