Dear Republican County Chairmen and Canvass Board Members,

I am very glad to hear that many of you are considering refusing to certify the 2025 election.  Not only can we refuse to certify, but it’s our duty to do so until there is proof that the elections were conducted honestly.

It has been pointed out that the duties of the Canvass Board are only to compare the clerk’s charts of the received number of ballots to the counted number of ballots and verify that they match.  That is true, but please consider that the rules and laws that limit the Canvass Board like that were put in place by people who were “elected” in elections that were not certified by Boulder County Republicans and others. 

It is expressly because BCR’s Canvass Board had so frequently refused to certify, citing that we had no idea where the mail ballots came from and if the people who “cast” them were eligible to vote, that Secretary of State Wayne Williams changed the definition of “ballots cast” to “the number of ballots received by the county clerk, not including those returned undeliverable.”  In doing that, he negated the entire process that once insured that only eligible electors cast ballots and made the Canvass Boards pretty much irrelevant.  There is currently an effort to make it a criminal offense for a Canvass Board member to refuse to certify an election.  We must use our power to secure the integrity of elections before we lose it.

I was on the Logic and Accuracy Test for the Boulder County 2025 coordinated election.  I submitted this OFFICIAL ADDENDUM to my signature on the completed test saying I have no confidence in the accuracy of the election system.  https://mycoloradogop.org/511-2025-lat-addendum-bocogop-chairman

This 2023 article has a two-part video of a Larimer County Risk-Limiting Audit participant who explains the RLA and points out the problems with it.  It also has a talk I gave about why we should not certify elections. This slide show goes with my talk and has links to many important articles - https://mycoloradogop.org/images/PDFs/WhyGOPCanvassMembersShouldRefuseToCertify2023.pdf

This is a detailed report by Al Kolwicz and the Colorado Voter Group that compares a traditional, certifiable election to the process we currently have.  https://mycoloradogop.org/78-detailed-election-integrity-report
