BOULDER CALLS FOR VISIONARY LEADERS TO JOIN CITY COUNCIL ELECTION RACE WITH FOUR SEATS UP FOR GRABS

As the political landscape of Boulder heats up, community members with a vision for shaping the city's future are being called to action to join the race for City Council in the upcoming November 4 election, with four seats poised for contention.

Recent guidance from the City of Boulder outlines the process for potential public servants stepping into the electoral arena.

According to the City of Boulder, the journey to the City Council begins with verifying one's eligibility; candidates must be over 21, U.S. citizens, Boulder residents for at least a year preceding the election, and not thrice-elected council members, in addition, they have to be recognized electors under Colorado laws, a rule that is in place to ensure that those running are genuinely embedded in the local sociopolitical fabric and committed to the city's well-being.

The next step, which can be taken between August 5th and August 25th, involves a digital declaration of intent capped by an official oath, all streamlined through an online form provided by Boulder's municipal machinery.
