Page 2 - Proposition Hh News Today

A statewide ballot issue asking voters to decide on a property tax reduction proposal appears to be failing by a wide margin.

Propositions HH and II, school board races and more are on ballots statewide.

The failure of Prop. HH means that lawmakers' efforts to loosen the fiscal limits of TABOR have been defeated once again.

The citys ballot measure asking to keep $4.75 million in taxes collected above the Taxpayers Bill of Rights cap was failing by a margin of 52 percent to 48 percent,

More than 654,000 ballots had been returned as of the end of the day Thursday. With more than 3.9 million active voters in Colorado, that marks a less than 17% voter turnout so far. 

Polis and Democrats are pitching a big change to property taxes and TABOR, but will the state go for it?

Colorado Springs City Council and the Pikes Peak Library District Board of Trustees have announced their opposition to statewide measure Proposition HH, which proposes to lower property tax assessment rates

State Republican lawmakers have been vocal in their opposition to Proposition HH, saying it is using a "property tax crisis" to "undermine the Taxpayer Bill of Rights."

Proponents of HH called the Republicans' policy recommendations "fundamentally unserious."

On Nov. 7, Colorado voters will decide the fate of Proposition HH, a complicated and important state ballot measure that could impact every citizen, regardless of the outcome.
