Gov. Jared Polis has signed a bill into law mandating that election officials bring voting services to county detention centers and jails for statewide general elections.

The statewide program is the first of its kind.

In total, 61 jails and detention centers will have in-person voting in November. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/colorado-jail-voting-in-person-november-election-rcna150951

Meanwhile, in Canada: in 2002, the Supreme Court ruled that federal prisoners have a constitutional right to vote.

@GottaLaff It may be an issue with a series of websites, Mastodon, or some Mastodon clients.

@GottaLaff

Are you sure that's the news link you meant to add? Seems off topic to your comments.

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@shekinahcancook It was the link they provided. I’m guessing it had multiple stories and it was a live feed.

@GottaLaff we're going to pay dearly for that decision if Biden has any chance at all in Colorado.
This likely boosted boebert's reelection chances as well.

@GottaLaff Question from the Æther: why is there a link to a Maduro story from 2021?

(Or am I missing something?)

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@gilesforyou It’s fixed. They obviously provided the wrong link.
