Ballot Measures
Overview
Considerations
LPC Dems
CO LWV
CO ACLU
CO Dems
Retain Current Elected Judges and Justices
Both Sheriff Smith and DA Murray support ALL current justices / judges.
Amd G
Modify Property Tax Exemption for Veterans with Disabilities
Amd H
Establish an Independent Judicial Discipline Board
Amd I
Constitutional Bail Exception for First Degree Murder
Concern that the language "pre-judges" guilt without a trial.
Amd J
Repealing the Definition of Marriage in the Constitution
Amd K
Modify Constitutional Election Deadlines
County Clerks have requested this.
Amd 79
Right to Abortion
Amd 80
School Choice in K-12 Education
School choice already protected. Opens door to use public taxpayer dollars for private, even religious schools
Prop JJ
Retain Additional Sports Betting Tax Revenue to Fund Water Conservation and Protection Projects
Prop KK
Firearms and Ammunition Excise Tax to Fund Mental Health Services for Veterans, Youth, etc
Prop 127
Prohibit Bobcat, Lynx, and Mountain Lion Hunting
Trapping is awful, but big cats are already well regulated by CO DOW.
Prop 128
Concerning Eligibility for Parole
Increases risks of recidivism; increases costs to prisons; delays "earned time credits" for participating in education, rehab programs.
Prop 129
Establishing Veterinary Professional Associates
VPAs would not be accedited, may not even have hands on training but would be allowed to do surgeries and diagnoses of animals.
Prop 130
Funding for Law Enforcement
No money for it in budget, but additional funds really needed as costs - employee wages, vehicles, body cams have increased substantially.
Prop 131
Establishing All-Candidate Primary and Ranked Choice Voting General Elections
Read this. La Plata Dems are all personally FOR RCV but this one is poorly written.

The sooner you vote, the quicker we stop asking for your ballot.
