Republican State Representative for District 60, Ron Hanks showed up for Peters.
Hanks, who is running for US Senate, announced he’s working on legislation to create watermarked paper ballots like currency and wants to eliminate Colorado’s successful and popular mail in ballot option. “It’ll have watermarks, it’ll have holographic images within, and they will not be able to be duplicated” Representative Hanks says, “It’s time has come and those ballots by the way need to be returned in person, and with an ID, there’s no more mail in ballots.”
He didn’t attend Wednesday’s rally but, Colorado Democratic party Representative, Nico Delgado responded to Hank’s remarks, saying: “Insurrectionist and leading Republican Senate candidate Ron Hanks is using this election conspiracy rally to prop up his campaign that’s rooted in the big lie.”
