The 2024 General Election ballots will ask citizens to vote on 14 statewide ballot issues and measures: seven initiatives, five amendments and two propositions. Seven have been placed on the ballot by lawmakers; seven by citizens.  Those accepted by the voters offer changes to the state constitution and existing statutes or approval of tax changes. On Monday, October 14th from 12 pm to 1 pm at the Methodist Church, 228 East 4th Street, Salida, Chaffee County voters will have an opportunity to learn more about the ballot questions that range from constitutional rights to abortion and school choice, ranked-choice voting, the definition of marriage through lion hunting, taxes, and more. League of Women Voters Chaffee County (LWVCC) leadership team members Carol Merovka and Marjie Gray will present the pros and cons on the state issues plus numerous local issues and will have informational pamphlets available for each participant. “The LWV of Colorado statewide Ballot Issues Information pamphlet is a shortened version of the Blue Book and a handy tool that helps voters decide what issues they want to vote yes or no on,” says Marjie Gray, Leadership Team Coordinator. A social with coffee begins at 11:15 a.m., followed by the program from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m.. Online resources also are available, including Vote 411.org where voters can learn about candidate stances, look up what’s on their ballot and more. LWVCO.org offers state ballot issues and the League’s stance, and video recordings of LWVCC speakers and local programs can be found at lwvchaffeecounty.org.
