TOP STORY: More than 370 voters in a southwest Colorado county never received ballots in the mail for the June 25 primary election, reports the Denver Post. Those lost ballots are affecting the race between Larry Don Suckla and J. Mark Roeber for House District 58’s primary.
With a three-vote margin, favoring Suckla, Colorado Secretary Jena Griswold ordered a recount. According to the Post, Griswold’s office noted that the lost ballots accounted for nearly a quarter of Dolores County’s active voter list. The ballots were apparently lost between when they were loaded in the U.S. Postal Service truck at the printing vendor in Seattle and their scheduled delivery to a mail facility in Albuquerque.
