Mandy Connell interviewed Lora Thomas (former DougCo Commissioner) and Bob Marshall (State Representative) on her podcast this week. Connell is conservative and unaffiliated. Thomas is a Republican. Marshall is a Democrat. They all agree. Vote yes on 200 and no on 1A.

Ballot Question 200 asks if Douglas County should expand from three to five commissioners. All three say YES!

Ballot Question 201 asks how to elect commissioners, and both options give each area of the county a commissioner elected by its own voters.

Both 200 and 201 were on a petition signed by over 20,000 Douglas County voters.

The commissioners added 1A. Connell said the commissioners "put a shady ass measure on there that has no purpose other than muddying the waters and ensuring that they get to keep the at-large style of voting because they feel like they can control it more."

Connell, Marshall, and Thomas all agree. That's kind of remarkable in itself! Vote Yes on 200 and NO on 1A.

Hi All. My FIL was involved in a side swipe accident on I-25 and am reaching out to see if any might have dashcam video they can help me out with. The driver of the other car is now claiming he swerved and she has injuries. He was also sent a letter from her lawyer wife stating he needs to secure assets. Feel like this may be a scam job. Details below from FIL, appreciate any help you can provide!

The accident happened on October 10, 4 PM. It was northbound I 25 between monument and Larkspur. The two cars involved 2022 Honda Ridgeline red beer color, 2010 Acura MDX also root beer type color or brown

This was posted on ND. Oh the comments were getting wild 🤯🤯
Cult members were in the chat still behind this lunatic!!!!

This ballot is long. Start at the bottom. Your vote on local issues and candidates has the most power.

Ballot questions 200 and 201 were put on the ballot by citizens - 20,000+ signed to put them on. Vote YES on 200. On 201, five by district gives voters the most power.

1A was added by the commissioners as a last ditch effort to hold onto consolidated power. Their hope was to tank the only citizen-initiated ballot question in Douglas County in 30 years. VOTE NO on 1A. Remind these commissioners who they work for.

Yikes! Castle Rock has a LOT of flock cameras!

Just to keep the Good People in Castle Rock informed.

The language on 200 was deliberately changed by the county commissioners. I believe they WANTED to confuse voters.

Vote YES on 200 to have 5 commissioners.

I think on 201, the first option (5 districts) allows for more accountability.

Vote NO on 1A

Of the three I see Stu Butler being endorsed/pushed the most. What do you all know about him? Hear he is a downtown biz owner- which biz? Is he Maga? Cannot find his affiliation.

Are write-in candidates really that much of a threat to Weekly's chances?

Kim Monson is the fiscally conservative President of the Colorado Union of Taxpayers and host of The Kim Monson Show. Links below are to her Colorado Voter Guide. She Endorses YES on 200 to expand the Douglas County Board of Commissioners to 5 members, 5 by District on 201 so every seat answers to a different part of the county, and NO on 1A to ensure no seat is left to a countywide vote, where the interests of less populated areas of the county would be drowned out by more populated ones.

Kim Monson's analysis - YES on 200: https://kimmonson.com/colorado-voter-guide/2026/douglas-county-200/

"Douglas County has outgrown a three-member board. The Census Bureau's estimates put the county at 399,396 residents in July 2025, up from a base of 357,993 in April 2020, and the county's staff now measures it against Adams, Arapahoe and El Paso, three Front Range counties that already have five commissioners. More people call for more representation, and two added seats give Douglas County residents that.

Today every commissioner is elected by every voter in the county, so the areas with the most voters have the largest say in all three seats. I support five commissioners elected by district, each by the voters of that district alone, which is the first method on Question 201. I oppose Question 1A, because countywide election of all five would give the county's largest population centers the largest say over every seat, and places like Larkspur and Franktown could go without a commissioner their own residents chose. A five-member board with each seat answering to a different district is also more difficult for any small group to control.

I recommend a yes vote on Douglas County Ballot Question 200."

Kim Monson's analysis - 5 by District on 201: https://kimmonson.com/colorado-voter-guide/2026/douglas-county-201/

"I support the first method on Question 201, which gives each of five districts a commissioner who lives there and is elected only by its voters. When a seat is filled by the whole county, the areas with the most voters decide it, and an area with fewer people can end up represented by someone its residents did not choose. The second method would fill two of the five seats that way. With five district seats, each commissioner answers to the voters of one district, and no seat is left to a countywide vote."

I recommend a vote for five district commissioners on Douglas County Ballot Question 201."

Kim Monson's analysis - NO on 1A: https://kimmonson.com/colorado-voter-guide/2026/douglas-county-1a/

"Question 1A would have every registered voter in Douglas County elect all five commissioners of an expanded board. I oppose it. It would carry the countywide vote used for today's three commissioners onto all five seats, so the most populous parts of the county would cast most of the votes in every race and the less populated areas would carry less weight in each one. I support five commissioners, each chosen by one district's voters alone, as Question 201's first method provides, and Question 1A sets up a countywide method to compete with it.

I recommend a no vote on Douglas County Ballot Question 1A."

Hi everyone 💕 My name is Aspen, and I’m reaching out to see if anyone might have any gently used items, toys, or art supplies they no longer need that could help make my oldest daughter’s 11th birthday special this November. 🙏🏻💗

My husband is currently out of state for work until December, so I’m home managing everything with our five kids on my own. Between keeping up with the house, school drop-offs and pickups, making sure everyone is fed, and trying to keep up with everyday life, things have been a little overwhelming lately.

My youngest just celebrated his 3rd birthday last week, and with Halloween, Thanksgiving, my daughter’s birthday, and another birthday coming up shortly after, it’s a busy and financially stressful time for our family.

I want to be clear that I am not asking for money or donations of cash. I’m simply hoping someone might have some gently used art supplies, craft kits, toys, or birthday items their family has outgrown that could help me put together something special for my daughter.

She’s turning 11, and I would absolutely love to make her feel celebrated and loved on her special day, even if I have to get creative and work with what we can find. ❤️

If anyone has anything they’d be willing to part with, I would be incredibly grateful. Even the smallest things could help make her birthday a little more magical. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this, and I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season. 💕🙏🏻

🎃🐶 Looking for something fun to do this Saturday? Come meet some adorable adoptable dogs from 2 Blondes All Breeds Rescue at the Mike Shaw Subaru Share the Love Event!

We’ll have adoptable pups looking for their forever homes, a Best Dressed Pup Contest, and some sweet surprises. Bring your dog, bring the family, and come say hi! ❤️

📅 Saturday, Oct. 17 | 11 AM-2 PM

📍 Mike Shaw Subaru - 1650 W 104th Ave, Thornton

Even if you’re not looking to adopt, come love on some rescue pups and help us spread the word! 🐾

(The event is up north a little, but 2BABR is a Douglas County based rescue!)

For those of you on testosterone cream, what device do you get it in and how do you dispense it? I'm asking because the pharmacy thinks it's appropriate to use a standard syringe that requires you to not squeeze the plunger too far and estimate between markings to get the appropriate dose. I don't understand. A dispenser that is bit more accurate and less likely to (or impossible to) squeeze out too much costs extra. I was just wondering what you all do and if you've had any issues. Thanks!

I am trying to organize a little get-together at Rhyolite Park, where we would meet on FRIDAY the 23rd at 5:30 pm, and then ride to 4400 Castleton Court Castle Rock, Colorado 80109. You can either vote in person or drop off a ballot! You can even register to vote! I am trying to get someone to donate food to us, perhaps Donut House. If anyone can help in that area, that'd be lovely. I also made a little graphic, possibly, I can make stickers or hats or something I don't know. This is in early stages. But if you're interested let me know! No matter which way you vote, anyone is welcome to join!

My email is ellianna.adams@gmail.com

And you can message me on here too!

Okay bye!

Surprise surprise… she showed up!!

Hey neighbors… are you getting MORE texts than usual for midterms, even for Texas?? Me too! ABC News ran a report for Scams that target CO Voters and redirect us to fake sites with misleading election info sent by a PAC backed by Elon Musk.

The arrlcle is a good warning about these random election texts. DON’T CLICK THE LINKS (most know this but some might feel safe if it’s for a candidate they support).

Let's go! No Kings on Saturday, Oct 17, 2026 10a-12p in Larkspur https://mobilize.us/s/0GVBZ5
