The Department of Justice is backing a former county election clerk in Colorado who was convicted for her role in allowing supporters of President Donald Trump to access confidential data about the 2020 election, the latest move by the administration to use its power to reward allies who violated the law on the president's behalf. Acting U.S. Assistant Attorney General Yaakov M. Roth submitted a filing in federal court in Colorado this week supporting a request from former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, who's asking a federal court to free her from jail while she appeals her state conviction for the 2021 election security breach.
