Why the primary election is where the real choices are made

It’s easy to look at the big general election in November as the main event. But the truth is, for Rio Blanco County, the primary election is often where the direction of our county is truly decided.

The primary determines who will actually be on the ballot representing us. It sets the course for how we handle our water infrastructure, manage our natural resources, and balance our county budgets for years to come.

Waiting until November means letting a small group of people make those critical choices for you. Our leadership reflects the entire community.
