Front Page Guest Editor Elections Next Week

•  
• by: Colorado Pols

We’d like to thank our front page guest editors for the second half of 2011, ProgressiveCowgirl and c rork for their valued support and contributions over the past few months. We have the most widely read and discussed political blog in Colorado because of our readers every bit as much as the content we ourselves are responsible for–and our democratically elected guest editors have always represented the best of that community. Thanks again to all of you who’ve served through the years.

We will hold an election for two new front-page guest editors next Thursday, December 15th. The new editors will start on January 1st, and barring anything unexpected will hold their positions through June of 2012–at which time we’ll have another election. We’ll conduct one poll of nominees, and the top two finishers from that poll will win coveted election-year front page editor spots. Our current editors are automatically renominated unless they decline.

Use this thread to nominate candidates for the two guest editor positions. And remember, there are no limits on campaign spending!

To learn more about the privileges and expectations of our guest editors, read this post, and feel free to ask questions. We are deploying new methods of continuing to ensure the election is fraud-free, so we remind readers as we do every time to not bother trying. We’ll catch you, it won’t work, and you’ll join a select group of banned users other readers make jokes about.
