Subject: Public Records Request
Per your public records request of 3/16/07 asking for access to election records, the Lafayette City Attorney has advised me to deny your request. State statutes require that the ballots and all other election records and forms are to be kept and preserved in the custody of the election official. (CRS 31-10-616) Further, the election official is prohibited from allowing inspection of any election records which permit the identification of a particular person. (CRS 24-72-204 (8)(a).
