Voters End Election Commission - Will Choose Clerk Wednesday, October 15, 2008 | 61 ° Few Clouds   Denver Approves Move to Elected Clerk and Recorder 2-to-1   January 31, 2007 - Denver voters have overwhelmingly put an end to the Denver Election Commission. The results of Tuesday's Special Election gave a more than two-to-one margin of victory to the proposal that calls for ending the 3 member Election Commission and instead electing a single Clerk and Recorder for Denver.   The vote was 36,461-Yes and 17,241-No. The 53,797 votes cast represent almost 20% (19.43%) of the electorate within the city.   The new elected Clerk and Recorder will be chosen by voters at the May 1 Municipal Election. Candidates for the office will run for the office at the same time that all other city officials seek their offices. Candidates for office must have their paperwork completed in early March.   Just as Tuesday's election, May's balloting will also be conducted by mail. The Registration deadline for voters to participate in the May Election is April 2, 2007.   The current Denver Election Commission will remain in place to run the May balloting. Once the Municipal election is complete the Clerk and Recorder will assume management of Denver elections. Posted on Wednesday, January 31, 2007 Posted by AlanD  Contributed by AlanD Return
