James Wiley, a 32-year-old Republican, is running for Colorado Secretary of State in 2026. He previously ran as a Libertarian for Colorado's 3rd Congressional District in 2024 and was a former Libertarian National Committee member. He switched parties to amplify his fight for election reform, advocating to free whistleblower Tina Peters, decertify compromised voting machines, and implement blockchain for state records. Having spent his early life in Kazakhstan, Wiley's political path stems from six years as a legal assistant on election-related cases. He plans to hold Secretary of State Jena Griswold accountable.
