Jefferson County clerk and recorder pushes back against proposed rules for states with mail-in voting

Jefferson County clerk and recorder Amanda Gonzalez opposes a proposed U.S. Postal Service rule requiring election offices to submit voter lists before mailing ballots, arguing it could delay or derail mail-in voting for hundreds of thousands of Colorado voters. She claims the rule introduces federal bureaucracy, risks errors, and lacks USPS expertise, while a Jefferson County Republican official supports federal involvement in ballot processing.
