The big debate is: Should we have one or two? election MileHighClerk Clean_Slate_Now
proposed shifting the debate requirement for FEF candidates from two to one in the first round of the election. Organizing these debates has been challenging so far, as the Clerk and Recorder's Office has been tasked with finding an organization to host each debate.
The organizations hosting the debates must feature all of the candidates for a specific race who are participating in the Fair Elections Fund, meaning. There are currently 71 candidates running in the municipal election, and 56 of them are participating in the Fair Elections Fund. According to the Clerk and Recorder's Office, around ten organizations have so far expressed interest in hosting debates.
To qualify for Fair Elections Fund money, mayoral candidates need to show that they've gotten donations of $5 or more from at least 250 individual Denver residents to qualify. Candidates for council, auditor, judge, or clerk and recorder must prove that they've received $5 or more from at least 100 individual Denver residents. The deadline for showing this proof and qualifying for funding has been February 13, which is fifty days before the election.
In addition, these Fair Elections Fund debates are not necessarily the only debates for municipal races, as there will be plenty of other debates and forums not related to the Fair Elections Fund requirements.
