what about the other stuff like dispensary and tax?

That is a good question. Perhaps the Flume could also include those results.

Wow...It seem the Sheriff is adding up some no confidence votes early on. There is almost 200 votes difference in total ballots and votes cast for a candidate. Interesting!

Here is an interesting link to how Park County is voting on state issues.

Sorry...website cannot display page...regarding your link.

Wow, Park went Red again.

Is anyone surprised by the numbers in the Sheriff's race?

Congratulations to Chris Sparks for a pretty darn good showing.
If my math is correct, an additional 782 voters chose not to vote for anyone at all in that race.
Interesting.
23% of the folks that voted are unhappy with the Sheriff and the entire other half of the county didn't even care to vote at all.
hmmmmm

My #'s and point of view is slightly different.

In 2008 Park County had 12,473 voters http://theflume.com/main.asp?Search=1&A ... onID=1&S=1 (I don't know if this increased or decreased since).

Via the results I can see that a total of 7,146 people voted Med mj vote counts).
5,332 voted for Fred
733 voted for Sparks

resulting 1,081 not voting for either Fred or Sparks.

Fred 74.6%
Sparks 10.2%
No vote 15.2%

I can state that 10% of the County that voted is not happy with Fred. It is impossible to state if the 15% that didn't vote for the Sheriff are happy or unhappy. The CROP group has a glimmer of hope if they want to recall Fred in 6 months, but I think it would be a stretch to state that 25% of the people that voted are anti Fred or PCSO.
