Representative Frizell
and Representative Brown, co-prime bill sponsors, presented Senate Concurrent
Resolution 24-002, which submits to the registered electors of the state
of Colorado an amendment to the Colorado Constitution concerning the modification
of certain deadlines in connection with specified elections. If approved
by voters at the 2024 election, the resolution changes deadlines for certain
filings in elections. Deadlines for filing initiative petitions, referendum
petitions, and declaration of intent for judges and justices will all be
moved up one week. Under current law, nonpartisan research staff publish
the text and titles of ballot measures at least 15 days before an election.
The resolution extends that period to 45 days.
