Judge Rules No Voter Intimidation by Colorado Election Integrity Group
Federal judge dismisses claims against organizers of door-to-door canvassing effort post-2020 election.
- Plaintiffs alleged the canvassing project was a form of voter intimidation under the Voting Rights Act and Ku Klux Klan Act.
- Defendants argued the effort was akin to a civics project, not intended to intimidate voters.
- Key witness testimony failed to directly link canvassers to the defendants, weakening the case.
- The judge emphasized the trial should focus on specific voter intimidation, not broader election fraud claims.
- Plaintiffs are considering an appeal following the dismissal of their case.
