    A federal jury in Colorado on Monday found that
    one of the nation’s most prominent election
    conspiracy theorists, MyPillow founder Mike
    Lindell, defamed a former employee for a leading
    voting equipment company after the 2020
    presidential election.

    The jury found that two of Lindell’s statements
    about Eric Coomer, the former security and
    product strategy director at Denver-based
    Dominion Voting Systems, including calling him
    a traitor, were defamatory. It ordered Lindell
    and his online media platform, formerly known as
    Frankspeech, to pay Coomer $2.3 million in
    damages, far less than the $62.7 million Coomer
    had asked for to help send a message to discourage
    attacks on election workers.
