“If it makes sense, I will include @realDonaldTrump in the referral for prosecution.”

Colorado Secretary of State @JenaGriswold 👇👇👇

Jena Griswold
@JenaGriswold
In Colorado, we take double voting seriously and refer all suspected cases for legal enforcement. If it makes sense, I will include @realDonaldTrump in the referral for prosecution. He may not have presidential immunity anymore depending on the election.

The alleged presidential immunity (only an untested memo, actually) does not apply to state charges.

Seems weird that she doesn't know this.

I'm not a Lawyer but I think the SOB could
beat that in court , because he didn't
say that in your State. He was speaking to
the people of NC.
We have to vote him out no matter what, mail
in or stand in, he has to go!
