We are here to help you vote your full ballot
Students in Introduction to Political Science and Media Literacy, along with input from volunteers with the League of Women Voters of La Plata County, have put together this resource to help you cast an informed vote on the important ballot measures facing us this year. Scroll below for video and written explainers by our student researchers.
Please note that our students and their League liaisons and professors have worked hard to remain neutral and to provide you with unbiased information to make your own decision. However, we urge you to use your own critical thinking in evaluating any political information – including ours - and in making these important voting decisions.
Also note that because of student interest and bandwidth we do not have explainers for Amendment D, Amendment, F, and Proposition 124. For info on those measures, or to follow up on any of our student guides below, we recommend the following additional resources.
