Office of the Denver Clerk and Recorder

10/07/2026

Our office typically holds a multitude of community events throughout the year, especially around Elections. Lately we've attended and hosted more events. Why? Because we are being asked to come out to events more frequently to have Clerk Paul López address the anxiety and uncertainty regarding the upcoming elections.
His message remains: “Don’t let people intimidate you, even for a second. Don’t let them distract you. People will vote and democracy will live.” 🗳️

Thank you Front Porch Newspaper for attending and covering this event, and your continued dedication to journalism.

Anxiety and uncertainty about the midterm elections have prompted election officials, voting advocates, and ordinary citizens to speak up in ways that they haven’t before.
