Colorado Bill for Local Option Approval Voting Loses in Committee

On February 6, the Colorado Senate State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee heard testimony on SB 65, a bill to permit cities and counties to use Approval Voting if they wish, for their own local elections. The bill was defeated 3-2 after Colorado local elections officials testified against it. Approval Voting lets voters cast votes for as many candidates as they wish (even though only one person is being elected). Thanks to Frank Atwood for this news.
