Colorado Statutes
§ 1-11-216 — Judgment in contests for county and nonpartisan elections
The
district court shall pronounce judgment on whether the contestee or any other
person was legally elected to the contested office or on whether the ballot issue or
ballot question was enacted. The court's judgment declaring a person elected
entitles that person to take office when the term of office begins, upon proper
qualification. If the judgment is against a contestee who has received a certificate,
the judgment annuls the certificate. If the court finds that no person was legally
elected, the judgment shall set aside the election and declare a vacancy in the
office contested.
