The Cherry Creek News: "The disastrous November election continues to reverberate through Denver's voting scheme, with as many as 50,000 voters who voted in 2004 stricken from the mail ballot lists for the May election. Ballots will be mailed in early April.
"It was an unprecedented meeting at the State Capitol, where legislators and community groups sought to focus attention on the issue. But nothing under the golden dome will impact Denver's next selection of a mayor, auditor, city council, or now, city clerk.
"Following the Denver Election Commission's decision to make 117,038 registered Denver voters 'inactive,' local advocacy groups are strongly urging the City and County of Denver to reverse the decision and grant voters the ability to cast their ballots in the May 1st, 2007 election. Those voters can request ballots from the Election Commission, but many will face the inconvenience of going downtown to exercise their rights. Compounding the issue is the sonorous nature of this year's contest, where in most of the city, there is little campaign activity."
