@60minutes: “As election officials, we don't have the kind of megaphone that the president of the United States has,” says Matt Crane, who leads the Colorado County Clerks Association. “[Trump] has much more ability to spread disinformation and lies about our election process than we do to spread the truth about what really happens.” Tina Peters served nearly two years behind bars for crimes related to breaching voting system security, though she maintains she was trying to show flaws in the system. Crane says Peters’ actions and the president’s support for her have fueled distrust of election workers, making them targets of threats and intimidation. Crane, who is a Republican, adds: “This is not a partisan issue.” #uspolitics #election
