The primary election is only 12 days away and ballots started arriving in mailboxes last week.
Contested primary races on Longmont voters’ ballots are Democratic and Libertarian contests for U.S. Senate and a Democratic race for Boulder County District 2 commissioner. To help voters learn more about the candidates prior to casting their ballots, The Leader asked them to complete short questionnaires. Democratic Senate candidate Andrew Romanoff and Libertarian Senate candidate Gaylon Kent did not respond to our request, but the other candidates did. Read their responses here:
