Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold’s office mistakenly posted a spreadsheet to its website that contained partial passwords to some parts of the state’s voting systems, it has confirmed.

In an Oct. 29 statement, the office said the spreadsheet shared on the department’s website “improperly included a hidden tab including partial passwords to certain components of Colorado voting systems.”
