SEPTEMBER 2010 ELECTION LIBGUIDE

SEPTEMBER 2010 ELECTION LIBGUIDE

1. I reviewed the information on the five tabs.

1. The first tab, Election and Voting Information, had online voter registration, forms, sample
ballots and voting maps

2. The second tab, 2010 Candidates and Parties, has a table with all the candidates for the
General Election and their party affiliation and seats on one page. There is a page
for Senators for Colorado U.S. Congress. Clicking on the names brings up complete bio
information,recent key votes, speeches, and ratings.

3. The third tab, Ballot Issues, has the entire Blue Book, full text house and senate bills, their
history, and pro and con comments on issues.

4. The forth tab, Campaign Finance Information, includes a disclosure site for campaign
finance in Colorado, searches expenditures, contributions, loans, complaints, and
searches for candidates.

5. The fifth tab, Media, includes televised debates, television and newspapers online links.


2. I found the Colorado Blue Book. It's nice to have this option available. One booklet is sent per
household, so it is nice to be able to access online as an alternative.

3. I took the quiz and got 5 out of 6 questions right.

4. This site can be used at work to fill out virtually any questions patron may come up with for
voting information. We can answer single questions or refer patrons to the site so that they
may look up the information for themselves.
