Colorado Confidential: "The question before voters is whether or not to eliminate the three-member Denver Election Commission and replace it with a single, elected clerk and recorder. Denver City Council voted 7-6 last month to hold the special election now instead of in May. While nearly everyone seems to agree that changes are needed at the DEC, there's not consensus that abolishing it is the right move. Councilwoman Rosemary Rodriguez and City Auditor are the measure's strongest backers. Saying it was the best option available, Mayor Hickenlooper gave his guarded support. Many others, however, are against the move. Some want to retain the three-member DEC, others want it gone but think the hasty special election is not the way to go about it."
