In an unprecedented year of divisiveness and rancor across the nation and in our community, Aspen Public Radio was proud to host a series of debates on local issues with the candidates and representatives from important local races. APR is the place on your dial and on your device to find intelligent and reasoned discussion.

Ballots should now be hand delivered

Colorado’s primary election concludes tomorrow. Voters statewide are selecting candidates from within their parties to be listed on the November 8th general election ballot.

To date, just under 2,000 ballots have been received in Pitkin County. Already more ballots have been returned this year than the total amount returned in any of the five previous primary elections.

Today and tomorrow, ballots can be dropped off. For Pitkin County voters, that can happen at the Aspen Jewish Community Center or the clerk’s office at its new location: 501 E. Hyman Ave.

Three candidates are running for a seat on the board of Pitkin County commissioners. And in Garfield County, two are vying for a commissioner seat.

In Garfield County, about 3,400 ballots have been turned in. Residents can bring their ballots to the courthouse in Glenwood Springs, the Rifle administration building and town halls in Carbondale, New Castle, Silt, and Parachute.

About 130 Eagle county residents have returned their ballots to the El Jebel drop off location near Crown Mountain Park.

Ballots in all three counties will be accepted until 7 p.m. Tuesday .
