Boulder County Ballot Question 201: Election Method for a Five-Member Board of County Commissioners
What does this measure do?
If Question 200 passes, this picks how five county commissioners are elected: all five by voters in their own district only, or three that way plus two chosen by the whole county. It does nothing if Question 200 fails, and taxes do not change.
