Take Action: Demand Mike Coffman's resignation
| By Alan Franklin - Dec 21st, 2007 at 4:57 pm EST |
Enough is enough--it's time for Colorado Secretary of State Mike Coffman to resign. The Rocky Mountain News and Denver Post reported today on another in a series of unethical misconduct scandals involving Coffman.
Election experts recommended that Coffman reject the voting machines of all four companies under consideration for use in Colorado in 2008. But earlier this week Coffman approved use of only one of those voting machines--the one manufactured by Premier Election Systems. Formerly Diebold Election Systems, Premier is represented by the same political consultants running Coffman's congressional campaign. And just last week the New York Times reported that Premier's voting machines and central servers are easily corrupted.
Coffman has proven that he cannot be trusted to run Colorado's elections. Click the link below and join our petition demanding Coffman immediately resign from his position as Colorado Secretary of State.

Coffman's latest breach of trust with the people of Colorado is the most disturbing yet in a clear pattern of abuse of authority and conflicted interests.
Coffman's pattern of ethical lapses and conflicts of interest extends back many years. He was the first Colorado statewide elected official to be found guilty of violating the Fair Campaign Practices Act by the Colorado Supreme Court for misusing his office in 2004. More recently, a top-ranking member of his office was found to have been engaged in selling voter and election-related data to fellow Republican candidates. Click below to sign the petition:

We'll share your comments with Coffman, Governor Bill Ritter, and county clerks across the state who have been victimized by Coffman's politically tainted administration of Colorado elections.
Thanks for taking the time to hold corrupt leaders accountable!
