he Colorado secretary of state announced a temporary emergency adoption of new rules that limit who can access voting equipment in the state and protect the state from "sham" election audits.

Secretary Jena Griswold, a Democrat, said on Thursday the rules are necessary to prevent the types of election equipment inspection and ballot recounts that have been seen in various counties across the nation, such as the present full forensic audit of the Arizona Maricopa County election and the audit of Michigan's Antrim County election.

"A third-party vendor with no election experience is currently performing a faulty, unsecure election audit in Arizona and calls for such sham audits have been spreading in other states," a press release from Griswold’s office said. "Several Colorado counties have been contacted by third parties offering to conduct audits."

It would be better if these 'sham-election-audits' were outlawed (and made illegal) nationwide.

I have tried to research, but sadly, I simply cannot fathom your "That is part of S1 IIRC"; perhaps you (kind RainCaster) might point me in the right direction...(OR Not)?

6. S.1 - For the People Act of 2021

Thank you very much for your response! And I believe you are correct, in that 'RainCaster' was indeed referring to:

S.1 - For the People Act of 2021 - 117th Congress (2021-2022)

I'm sure that's the one!
