James Wiley is a Libertarian political activist in Colorado who ran for Congress in the state's 3rd Congressional District in 2024. His campaign brought attention to election security concerns that have become central to his public advocacy.

Wiley is a plaintiff in a lawsuit against Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold regarding voting machine security. His technical arguments focus on concerns about BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) logs, wireless settings, and password security in voting machines. He argues that without proper verification of these systems, the machines cannot be trusted to produce reliable results.

His appearance on The Kim Monson Show focused on making the technical case for decommissioning voting machines, explaining why simple password changes are insufficient to address what he views as fundamental security vulnerabilities in election equipment.
