Victoria Klingensmith

Commissioner Ab Layden said the law has been followed exactly as advised by counsel, Colorado Politics reported.

District Judge Victoria Klingensmith denied a preliminary injunction on September 11, finding that the court lacked authority to remove 1A before the election and that the five-day window under state law for challenging Question 200's added wording had closed, according to Colorado Politics.

She did not rule on the merits, and she denied reconsideration on September 16, Colorado Politics reported.

A spokesperson for the Douglas County Clerk and Recorder said the litigation is ongoing and that the courts will likely determine how 1A and 201 are implemented, depending on the election results, according to an October 2, Colorado Politics report.
