Colorado Democrats censure Polis over Tina Peters clemency decision

Colorado's Democratic Party central committee voted 89.8% to censure Gov. Jared Polis after he commuted the nearly nine-year sentence of Tina Peters for tampering with election equipment, temporarily barring him from party events; Polis defends the decision as non-partisan and data-driven, while Peters’ sentence reduction draws criticism from prosecutors and party members who say it harms election integrity and party credibility.
