SandBoxBlogs: Mountain Mail "Election officials ask judge to throw out lawsuit "

Are you starting to grow skeptical of all this hard pushing to quash Marilyn Marks voice?

A voters’ group filed the lawsuit in March against election officials in the six counties, contending the officials use procedures that make it possible to identify persons who voted a specific ballot.

"Unapologetically pursuing and tracking patterns within the news others make since 2010."
"DENVER – Election officials in Chaffee County and five other counties are asking a judge to throw out a lawsuit alleging the officials might violate voters’ right to anonymous, untraceable ballots.

SandBox Comments: The Mountain Mail "New date set for ballot disclosure "

Cailey McDermott:

"To provide more time for a counter expert witness, the Dec. 1 court hearing about disclosure of 2010 voter ballots was vacated and a new date was set for 8:15 a.m. March 23.

Marilyn Marks of Aspen recently demanded ballot disclosures in Chaffee County to "make it clear that voted ballots are public records."

Chaffee County Clerk and Recorder Joyce Reno appealed the request.

Reno said voted ballots are required to be kept confidential under the Colorado Constitution and Colorado law.

Jenny Davis, county attorney, said the hearing was delayed because the county has an expert witness and Marks' attorney wanted time to obtain a counter expert witness.

Davis said the county fought the court delay and lost.

March was selected because Marks will be traveling in January and there were conflicts with the caucus in February, Davis said."
