Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold Left Voting System Passwords Exposed Online for Months
Only Acted to Change Some Passwords After GOP Exposed the Security Risk
In a serious breach of election security, Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold’s office left voting system passwords publicly accessible on the state’s website for several months.
Despite discovering the exposure on October 24, Griswold’s team only began to change the leaked passwords after the Colorado GOP brought the issue to light.
