SEN. KEVIN VAN WINKLE DEMANDS THE AUDIT COMMITTEE INVESTIGATE & HOLD ACCOUNTABLE JENA GRISWOLD FOR HER LEAK & SCANDAL COVER-UP.

(Greenwood Village, CO) – State Senator Kevin Van Winkle, who is a member of the Legislative Audit Committee (LAC), sent a letter to legislative leaders demanding an emergency meeting of the committee concerning the ever widening election scandal and cover-up involving the Colorado Secretary of State.

As disclosed this past week, the Colorado Secretary of State, Jena Griswold, posted highly confidential election system passwords online for months. The passwords were viewable by anyone, including county clerks, employees, and third-party vendors with physical access to election systems who are prohibited to have BIOS passwords.

Sen. Van Winkle agreed that her public response was insufficient and raised even more concerns than it addressed.

Again, the BIOS passwords access the Basic Input/Output System (BIOS), which runs “underneath” the operating system. Its vulnerabilities present such a grave threat according to Griswold’s own standards, which is why her own election rules forbid their disclosure to all but a few trusted State employees. In the Tina Peters trial, a senior State official even testified that release of these passwords in a single county represented a grave threat.

The Colorado Republican Party commends Sen. Kevin Van Winkle for his commitment to election security and building trust with the public. We also join with Sen. Van Winkle in calling for legislative leaders, especial Republicans like LAC Chairwoman Rep. Lisa Frizell, to organize an emergency hearing that allows lawmakers to get to the truth of what the Secretary knew and when she knew about it.

A copy of the letter to legislative leaders can be view below.
