2018 Elections 2018 Abstract of Votes Cast Office of the Secretary of State State of Colorado Jena Griswold, Secretary of State Jenny Flanagan, Deputy Secretary of State Judd Choate, Director of Elections Elections Division Office of the Secretary of State 1700 Broadway, Suite 200 Denver, CO 80290 Phone: (303) 894-2200, ext. 6307 Official Publication of the Abstract of Votes Cast for the Following Elections: 2018 Primary 2018 General Dear Coloradans, My office is honored to present you with the biennial election abstract report. This abstract report contains the official statewide election results from the 2018 primary election and the 2018 general election. This report also includes voter turnout statistics and a directory of state and county elected officials. Our staff compiled this information from materials submitted by Colorado’s 64 county clerk and recorders. Additional information is available at Accountability in Colorado Elections (ACE), available online at https://www.sos.state.co.us/pubs/elections/ACE/index.html. Colorado is lucky to have one of the best voting models in the country. Just over 90% of our eligible voters are registered to vote, which is the highest of any state in the country. In the 2018 general election, the turnout of registered voters increased almost 10% from the 2014 election to 64.92%, with over 2.5 million people voting in the general election. This puts Colorado second highest in the nation in voting eligible population turnout. In fact, Colorado’s voter turnout has been in the top 5 nationally in every election since 2010. The 2018 primary election was also the first year that unaffiliated voters in Colorado were able to participate in the primary election. We had historic participation in the primary -- the ballots cast nearly doubled compared to the 2016 and 2014 primaries. There were 1,161,574 ballots cast compared to 644,723 in 2016 and 634,181 in 2014. We are dedicated to ensuring that Colorado continues to have accessible and secure elections.

Results & Officer Information Reported by the Counties The election results and county officer information in this abstract were obtained from each of Colorado’s 64 counties. The results in this abstract are more accurate than the compiled and totaled returns reported on the Secretary of State’s website immediately after the election because they account for any miscalculations in the totals initially reported by each county. Judicial Officer Information Judicial officer information, including dates of oath and terms of office, was provided by the Office of the State Court Administrator. Registered Voters, Ballots Cast, & Turnout In the results section of this abstract, the column titled “Registered Voters” is the number of registered voters eligible to vote in each contest. The column titled “Ballots Cast” is the number of voters who cast a ballot in each contest. The column titled “Turnout %” reflects the percentage of registered voters who cast a ballot in each contest. The county-level turnout, located at the back of the abstract, is provided using both active voters and registered voters. Colorado statute currently requires that county-level turnout be reported by registered voters. However, prior to 2011, statute required that turnout be reported by active voters. To allow comparison of turnout data throughout the years, we have chosen to provide the turnout data for both active and registered voters. Recent Changes in Colorado Law In 2016, Colorado voters approved citizen initiatives Proposition 108 and Amendment 71. Proposition 108 allowed unaffiliated voters to participate in Colorado state primary elections for the first time. Because of this influx of new voters, the turnout percentage for the 2018 primary election is almost double compared to the 2016 primary election. Amendment 71 raised the passage threshold from a simple majority to 55% for statewide ballot issues that add language to the state constitution. To avoid confusion over whether a ballot issue has passed or failed, each ballot issue is labeled Passed or Failed in the header, for example, “Amendment V (CONSTITUTIONAL)—FAILED”. 3 Directory Name Party Home City District Term Salary United States Senators Cory Gardner REP Yuma State 2015-2021 $174,000 Michael Bennet DEM Denver State 2017-2023 $174,000 Congressional Members Diana DeGette DEM Denver 1 2019-2021 $174,000 Joe Neguse DEM Lafayette 2 2019-2021 $174,000 Scott R.

  • The Arc of Colorado 2019 Legislative Scorecard
    The Arc of Colorado 2019 Legislative Scorecard A Letter from Our Executive Director: Dear Members of The Arc Community, Once again, I would like to thank each of you for your part in a successful legislative session. We rely on your expertise in the field. We rely on you for our strength in numbers. For all the ways you contributed this session, we are deeply appreciative. I would like to give a special thanks to those that came and testified on our behalf; Stephanie Garcia, Carol Meredith, Linda Skafflen, Shelby Lowery, Vicki Wray, Rowan Frederiksen, and many others who I may not have mentioned here. This session was a historic one. For the first time in 75 years, one party had control of the house, senate, and governor’s office. Additionally, there were 43 new legislators! We enjoyed a productive year in which The Arc of Colorado monitored 100 bills. Of those that we supported, 92% were signed by the governor and 100% of the bills that we opposed died. This high success rate means that individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families will have more opportunity to better live, work, learn, and play in their Colorado communities, with increased support. We are excited about many of this year’s outcomes. In a very tight budget year, the Joint Budget Committee was able to free up money for 150 additional slots for the Developmental Disabilities waiver waitlist. After three years of involvement, we finally saw the passing of HB19-1194, which places restrictions on suspensions and expulsions of children from preschool, through to second grade.

  • General Assembly State of Colorado Denver
    General Assembly State of Colorado Denver August 14, 2020 Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission 1120 Lincoln St #801 Denver, CO 80203 Via email: [email protected] Nearly a decade in the making, the Colorado legislature passed Senate Bill 19-181 last year, charging the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) “shall regulate oil and gas operations in a manner to protect and minimize adverse impacts to public health, safety, and welfare, the environment, and wildlife resources and shall protect against adverse impacts on any air, water, soil, or biological resources resulting from oil and gas operations.” This historic bill shifted our state focus to better prioritize health and safety as we also regulate this important industry. SB19-181 also made a significant change to the agency itself shifting the COGCC to full time members who can focus on these key issues. In the coming months, we know that your hard work will be key to implementing the legislative vision of this law. Your presence on this commission is intended to ensure fulfillment of the agency’s new mission. Truly, our constituents and local economies are relying on you, in this role, to help improve their overall wellbeing. This is no small task, which is why your expertise and willingness to join this effort makes us proud. We appreciate your support improving protections for public health, safety, and the environment. Due to the previous mission, COGCC commissioners and staff were often drawn between competing interests, often in conflict. This led to permits granted for oil and gas facilities that were not protective of public health, safety, welfare, the environment and wildlife.

  • S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local
    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.

Dylan Roberts Colorado General Assembly 200 E Colfax, Room 307 Denver, CO 80203 Dear Rep. Jackson and Rep. Roberts, On behalf of the Colorado BioScience Association (CBSA), thank you for the opportunity to share our comments on the draft prescription drug price transparency bill. We appreciate your work on this legislation and your thoughtfulness as you seek to gather data and information prior to bill introduction. CBSA represents over 720 life sciences organizations across Colorado that drive innovations, products, and services to improve and save lives. Our state is the center of bioscience for the Rocky Mountain Region, directly employing 30,000 people and spinning out an average of 20 new bioscience companies each year. Our members play a crucial role in the development of breakthrough technologies and therapies that are leading to reduced health care costs and improved patient outcomes. While we appreciate your work on this legislation, we have several concerns with the draft bill that are outlined below. We look forward to working with you to address these concerns and to pass legislation that will achieve the goal of lowering out-of-pocket costs for Colorado patients. Sharing Rebates with Patients at Point of Sale CBSA is committed to ensuring patients have access to the medicines they need. In our current health care system, however, patients are paying cost-sharing based on the list price of a drug, regardless of the rebates and discounts the insurer or pharmacy benefit manager receives for the drug.

  • Colorado 2018 Primary Election Results and Analysis
    June 27, 2018 Colorado 2018 Primary Election Results and Analysis Colorado held its primary election last night, setting the stage for the November general election where Walker Stapleton (R) and Jared Polis (D) will compete to replace term-limited Gov. John Hickenlooper (D). In all the statewide races, substantially more votes were cast in Democratic primary contests than in Republican races. Figures from the secretary of state’s office indicate that, as of midnight, 1,158,700 voters had returned their mail-in ballots, a number that represents more than 30 percent of the state’s total registered voters. Ballots are still being processed, with July 5 being the last day for military and overseas ballots to arrive and the last day for a voter to cure a missing signature or signature discrepancy. Even without the final numbers, it is clear that voter turnout was up significantly from the 2016 primary election when only 21 percent of the electorate participated—an all-time low. This year’s high primary turnout was due in part to Colorado’s new law allowing unaffiliated voters to participate for the first time. Of the 1,158,700 ballots tallied thus far, 280,958 were cast by unaffiliated voters, 412,411 by Republicans and 465,331 by Democrats. Ballots cast in the Democratic primary for governor exceeded those cast in the Republican primary by more than 100,000. This difference was consistent in congressional and state legislative races as well. In a state with voter registration roughly even among Republican, Democrat and unaffiliated voters, this trend is notable and may reflect intensity.
