NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Arapahoe County to amend the adopted 2022 Annual Budget as follows: a.Transfer $20,664 from General Fund, Sheriff’s Office and recognize and appropriate the same amount in the Central Services Fund, Sheriff’s Office for additional upfitting expense to asset number 303521 for an unmarked bomb squad vehicle and asset number 303081 for an unmarked school resource officer (SRO) K9 vehicle. b. Transfer $50,000 from the unappropriated fund balance in the Arapahoe Law Enforcement Authority (ALEA) Fund, Sheriff’s Office to fund increased spending on personnel including overtime, incentive pay and salaries as well as associated benefits. c.Transfer $651,000 from the Cash in Lieu Fund, Open Spaces to the Open Spaces Sales Tax Fund, Open Spaces and recognize and appropriate the same with $308,000 for the reimbursement of the Cheyenne-Arapahoe Park project and $343,000 for the Dove Valley Regional Park project. d.Transfer $60,705 from the Self-Insurance Liability Fund, County Attorney and recognize and the same amount in the Central Services Fund, Administrative Services for three totaled vehicles in the Sheriff’s Office.

“I’m not comfortable with a process that says the way to get on the ballot essentially is by paying to get there,” he said. “Caucus has its aws, for sure. But I think it’s an important option to have. I don’t know why we would remove options. Instead we should talk about expanding options for voters and candidates.” e Colorado Democratic Party and America Votes, a liberal national nonpro t, both oppose the bill. Grassroots Republicans and the Colorado Libertarian Party are also encouraging supporters to voice opposition to the legislation.

Voters First Colorado, part of the national, nonpartisan group Unite America, supports Senate Bill 101. Unite America was a proponent of Alaska’s switch to an open primary where both Democratic and Republican candidates are on the same ballot and voters’ top four choices advance to the general election. Voters then use ranked-choice voting — in which they order their preferred candidates — to select the winner. Nevada voters approved a similar system last year.

Kirkmeyer said she’s open to amending her bill to lower the signature requirements for candidates to make the ballot, but she thinks her bill is a reasonable way to make ballot access more equitable. iry is also pushing for altera-

Right now, she argues, it’s too easy for third-party candidates to get on the ballot. Kirkmeyer lost a 2022 congressional bid by less than 1 percentage point in a race where the Libertarian candidate picked up 4% of the vote. And she said it’s unfair that una liated voters, who make up the largest voting bloc in Colorado, aren’t allowed to sign partisan candidates’ ballot-access petitions.

“For those people who say, ‘now you’re making people pay-to-play,’ my response to that is if a 63-year-old woman can get volunteers and go get her signatures — me — without having to pay for them, I think anyone can do it,” she said.

(Kirkmeyer had to collect 1,500 signatures to make the ballot in the 8th Congressional District last year.)

Barbara Kirkmeyer talks to a District 8 voter with election 2022 banners behind her.

Kirkmeyer’s position is notable because some in the Colorado GOP want to ban candidates from gathering petition signatures to make the primary ballot. A right-wing contingent in the party is pushing for a rules change because they view candidates who make the ballot by gathering signatures as less ideologically pure than those who go through the caucus and assembly process.
