Maria Orms Files Formal Complaint on GOP Convention and Requests Investigation

DENVER - Rezul -- Maria Orms Files Formal Challenge to Integrity of Colorado Republican Party Convention Vote

Denver, Colorado — Gubernatorial candidate Maria Orms has filed a formal challenge and request for investigation regarding the integrity and accuracy of vote tabulation at the Colorado Republican Party State Convention held on April 11, 2026, at the Massari Events Center in Pueblo.

The challenge cites multiple concerns involving deviations from established procedures, potential breaches in ballot security, and discrepancies in vote totals that raise questions about whether all counted votes were cast by duly credentialed delegates.

"This challenge is about ensuring transparency, accountability, and confidence in the process," said Orms. "We must value honesty above potential reputational damage. Ensuring election integrity in every election is essential, and we must fully understand what went wrong here so it does not—and cannot—happen again."

Key Issues Raised

The formal filing outlines four primary areas of concern:

• Deviation from Published Credentialing Procedures:
  Credentialing was reportedly changed mid-process from a county-based system to alphabetical check-in, without prior notice or documented authorization.
• Access to the Teller Committee Area:
  Reports indicate that a candidate may have accessed the ballot tabulation room during counting, raising concerns about neutrality and chain-of-custody safeguards.
• Discrepancy in Vote Totals:
  The number of votes counted (reported at 2,173) appears to exceed the number of credentialed delegates (reported at 2,093), suggesting a potential overcount of approximately 80–87 ballots.
• Acceptance of Ballots from Non-Delegates:
  Allegations indicate that individuals without "DELEGATE" designation on their credentials may have been permitted to vote.

Request for Immediate Audit and Documentation

Orms is requesting a full audit and reconciliation of all credentialing and voting records preferably by an independent group that has no ties to candidates or members of the Executive Leadership, audit to include:

• Final credentialed delegate counts
• All ballots cast and counted
• Teller sheets and tabulation records
• Credentialing logs and procedures to include signature logs
• Identification of all individuals present during vote counting

Additionally, the filing requests a complete list of credentialed delegates and a formal written response by April 17, 2026.

Potential Remedies

If discrepancies are confirmed, the requested remedies include:

• Correction of reported vote totals
• Invalidation of improperly cast ballots
• Nullification of results where integrity cannot be verified
• A new vote, if necessary

Moving Forward
"Accountability strengthens our party," Orms added. "Once this process is fully reviewed and resolved, we need to come together as a party, get behind our candidates, and ensure we take back our state."
