El Paso County Colorado has a long history of partisan politics that has led to a lack of representation for many communities. In fact, the last Democrat to serve as an El Paso County commissioner was Stan Johnson back in the early 1970s. This year's redistricting process provides a unique opportunity to break the cycle of partisanship and create a more just and inclusive society. We are committed to working with the board to ensure that the new lines are drawn in a way that is fair, transparent, and takes into account the needs of all communities. By coming together, we can make history and create a brighter future for El Paso County.
