1454 best considered next session.

It's clear to many the fiscal notes of 1454 underestimate the cost of a special election, the so called "Presidential Primary."

Washington State has said their similar election in a similar sized state costs $11.5 million and there is no reason it would be less than that in Colorado.

Yet the Legislative Council has said it will cost half or less of that here.

Why?

Also, there has been no explanation of what will happen if an initiative is passed that addresses the same concerns of 1454.

These and many other questions need to be answered before this bill is ready for consideration on the floor. With only days left, why not lay over consideration until next session?
