Shasta County Registrar Plans to Hire Tina Peters Despite 7 Election-Interference Convictions

Summary
September 4 is the planned start date for Tina Peters as Shasta County assistant registrar, replacing Brent Turner, Registrar Clint Curtis said.
Peters, the former Mesa County clerk in Colorado, was convicted on 7 counts of election interference in 2024 and remains on parole, barring her from leaving Colorado until 2029.
County succession rules would put the assistant registrar in the registrar role if Curtis leaves early, though the Board of Supervisors would then choose a temporary replacement.
Curtis was censured by the board in a 3-1 vote last week, and his term as registrar is set to end in early January.
