Revision as of 16:24, 28 May 2017
This page contains information about all Colorado state judiciary appointments. It is part of the Colorado elections project.
In general, when vacancies arise on a court, candidates are nominated by commissions and appointed by the governor and then stand in the general election in order to remain on the bench. Commissions also provide voters with evaluations on the performance of each judge up for retention in the general election.
Nick Holst: I am researching the below courts as well as important state and district nominating commissions. I should have something to submit by Thursday June 1.
