Colorado Secretary of State candidate Jena Griswold, the incumbent Democrat, claimed victory just before 9 p.m. Tuesday at a Colorado Democratic Party election night watch party.
Unlike Peters, Anderson has acknowledged that Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election, and she does not subscribe to election conspiracy theories. But that did not go far enough for Griswold, who said the “Big Lie” is fueling the dangerous situations elections officials have found themselves in since 2020.
Meanwhile, Anderson had criticized Griswold for her “hyper partisanship” of the office and using the investigations into Peters — which Anderson said she supported — as campaign fodder for her reelection and future political office. She also accused Griswold of not taking accountability for mistakenly sending out 30,000 postcards to noncitizens reminding people to register to vote. This type of data error occurred for the second time under Griswold’s tenure .
Anderson said in an interview Tuesday night that voters across the state resonated with her campaign’s message of bringing nonpartisanship and professionalism to the top elections office, but ultimately, she thinks Colorado voters weren’t splitting tickets this election. And, she said, she was outspent 15 to 1.
“I’m incredibly proud of the mission that I had and the campaign we ran,” she said. Anderson added that she will continue to work in the elections space, which she called her “life’s work,” including improving elections, access, integrity and professionalism in elections offices. Both candidates have said Colorado’s election systems are safe and secure, and that voters can trust the results.
