Ranked-choice voting system: yes, or no?

During the last Presidential Primary, some Coloradans voted right before their primary choice dropped out of the race. This sparked a conversation around ranked-choice voting in Colorado and it has us wondering: What are your thoughts on ranked-choice voting? During the last …

A win for our democracy!

The package of voter suppression bills aimed to dismantle Colorado’s gold-standard election structure under the guise of the Big Lie about the 2020 election. Well, we have news for the GOP: the reason there is any lack of trust regarding the democratic process is because of the false narrative the…

🚨 Potential Opponent Alert 🚨

There are reports that Rose Pugliese, a conservative Republican, is eyeing the Secretary of State’s seat. Just last week, Rose was the lone finalist for the Mesa County attorney position, but after complaints of cronyism, she changed her mind. Instead, she is said to be focused on winning the Secr…

They’re still spreading conspiracy theories

Of the five candidates that ran to lead the Colorado GOP, four undermined faith in our elections by claiming the 2020 election was stolen. This is wrong. Even after many federal judges from both parties affirmed the safety and fairness of the 2020 presidential election, the GOP chair candidates st…

Over 360 bills to restrict voting rights in 47 states

Georgia’s new set of voting restrictions are aimed at increasing Republican power by making sure only certain voters are able to easily access the polls. Voter suppression bills like these may influence whether Republicans can retake Congress and the White House, when the decision of who is electe…

Spreading lies to win

During a closed-door GOP event hosted by a conspiracy group, former CO Secretary of State Scott Gessler bragged about generating negative news and a smear campaign against Jena! Colorado Republicans will stop at nothing to tear Jena down, and it's clear they are set to make Jena their prime target…

Protecting our elections

I recently testified in support of the Preventing Foreign Influence Act, which would help prevent foreign interference in Colorado’s elections! “Big corporations should not have a blank check to influence candidate elections, nor should we permit foreign influence in our electoral process.” …

Sign your name if you stand for truth and transparency

The federal “For The People Act” modernizes elections by guaranteeing national automatic voter registration and same-day voter registration while increasing security through voter-verified paper ballots and reeling in dark money spending. The federal “For The People Act” mod…

Voter suppression in Iowa and Georgia

Republicans in Iowa and Georgia are pushing through blatant voter suppression bills! In Georgia, the GOP’s bill would slash access to voting by mail, limiting it to only those age 65 and older or who have one of a handful of state-approved excuses. It would also. Similarly, in Iowa the GOP plans t…

An attack on our rights

This year, Colorado Republicans have pushed legislation to: stop the sending of mail ballots to all registered voters, exclude any ballots not counted by Election Day, and cut early voting. On the flip side, Colorado Democrats are fighting to: combat election disinformation, stop foreign influence…

Removing voting barriers for young generations

Baseless claims about the 2020 election are fueling a wave of Republican-led proposals to make it harder to vote. Meanwhile, Democrats are working to push through HR1, or the For The People Act, which will establish a federal baseline of voting access. Baseless claims about …

My name is Jena Griswold, and I proudly serve as Colorado’s Secretary of State. I grew up working class in the mountains of rural Colorado, and became the first person in my family to go to a 4-year college. I continued on to law school, and I now have over $200,000 in student debt. …
