Thank you so much for this work!

Goes to Governor's Desk

First, sorry about that blank email. It gotloose somehow.

Next, SB21-188 has passed and has gone to the Governor's desk for his
signature. After passing on 3rd reading in the House earlier this week, it
returned to the Senate and was sped through by Senator Jessie Danielson, the
sponsor of the bill. It went to the Governor yesterday.

This is a big moment folks. It means that our ability to vote privately,
securely and independently has just become closer to level withour fgellow
Coloradans who are sighted. We will be able to vote online and for the
majority of us who no longer (or never) own a printer, we can return our
completed ballots electronically.

Jessie Danielson is a champion!  Thanks also to our House sponsores of the
bill - Rep. Monica Duran and REp. David Ortiz.

An even happier Friday!

Dan
