Important Stuff
The Town of Empire will hold a GENERAL ELECTION on Tuesday April 2, 2024
“Decisions are made by those who show up!” (Quote from the TV Series the West Wing) We encourage everyone to vote in our local election!
Mail Ballot Elections make voting easy. You will receive your ballot in the mail, fill out your ballot at home, put it in the postage paid return envelope, and take it to the Post Office, or drop it off at Town Hall. Please verify your voter registration with the County to ensure you receive a Ballot. Ballots must be received at Town Hall by April 2, 2024.
Everyone is invited to a Town Hall Meeting on Tuesday, March 12 at 6:30 pm, to meet all the candidates for Mayor and Board of Trustees. This gives you an opportunity to get to know all of them better and hear why they want to serve as your Mayor and Board of Trustees.
Here are your candidates:
MAYOR: Wendy Koch
BOARD OF TRUSTEES: Randy Horning, Jacob Belcher, Denise Tennant, Lon Fulton
Ballots will be mailed the week of March 11. If you will be out of town and cannot pick up your ballot from your PO Box, please contact Town Hall for an absentee ballot form so we can send your ballot to you. (303-569-2978, clerk@empirecolorado.us)
Please pick up a handout or click here to get information on the ballot question asking if you, the voters, want to eliminate term limits. It’s important to understand what your “yes” or “no” vote means.
For questions, please call or email the clerk: 303-569-2978, Clerk@EmpireColorado.us
