The state says thousands of Colorado voters are getting a ballot in the mail that’s missing most questions to be decided next month, including some controversial school board races…
(Bad Teller Ballots :36)
The Secretary of State’s office says a vendor sent out about 15 thousand incorrect ballots, for some 75% of the county’s active voters, in Teller County. That’s in the south central part of the state, a little west of Colorado Springs. It’s where Pikes Peak and the town of Woodland Park are. The county clerk’s office says those incorrect ballots don’t have the questions on them for 2 statewide propositions, or the Woodland Park school board election. That district’s recently gotten national attention for adopting a series of very conservative policies like a civics curriculum that had been rejected by the rest of the state, and for declining grants for student mental health programs. The county clerk’s office says it’ll put replacement ballots in the mail there, by the end of this week.
