Elect Lisa Wilkes

Today was a hard day for our community. Not only is it Transgender Day of Remembrance, but we also had a horrible tragedy befall Club Q, a place where our lgbtqia+ family felt safe. We have lost more of our community on a day already set to remember our community members lost.

Our hearts are broken, but we are steadfast in our continued fight for visibility and healing. Our community is stronger when we stand together and we look forward to standing with you in the months and years to come.

Thank You All!

I have truly appreciated everyone's support and hard work throughout this campaign. I called Steve Schleiker this morning and thanked him for a good campaign run. He has let me know that he may ask for my expertise in the coming years. My love for redistricting and data drew me to this position. I am happy to assist however I can in the future. I appreciate Colorado's mail-in ballot system and the way our system is run. I look forward to seeing Steve further El Paso County's excellence.

Don’t let this Spooky Season keep you from voting!

Just finished my interview with the CS Indy!

This Wednesday I participated in the Church of All Nations Candidate Forum for County Clerk and Recorder. It was great to get out and listen to different point of views. If you are going to represent a district, even in a public servant role, you still have to listen and speak to people with varying ways of thinking. Here is the link if you want to watch the conversation.

Happy 35th Martin Luther King Jr. Day!

Martin Luther King Jr. said “Voting is the foundation stone for political action.” He also spoke about how having the right to vote gave him the ability to possess himself and not have to submit to others by the inability to have a voice in the rules that govern his person.

People need access to voting, and to know that it is fairly and accurately counted to represent the voice of the people. They need this access to participate in the governing of themselves. As Clerk and Recorder for El Paso County, I will make sure that all of our residents have access and transparency when it comes to voting.

First day to circulate county level candidate petitions is Tuesday 1/18/2022

El Paso County Colorado is gearing up for Election Season. Starting Tuesday, January 18, 2022 a County Candidate may start collecting ballot signatures for petitioning to get on the ballot instead of going through the Caucus Process. You will still need to contact the Elections Department to get your petition forms verified. If you are interested in this, please reach out to the Elections Department. Call 719-575-VOTE or email [email protected]

Here at Elect Lisa Wilkes, we are going through the Caucus Process and we look forward to seeing you there March 5, 2022!

I, Lisa Wilkes, am renewing my run for El Paso County Clerk and Recorder!

What is different this year? Some of you may know that I was a commissioner on the Colorado Independent Congressional Redistricting Commission last year, where we redistricted the state of Colorado into 8 congressional districts. The amendment that was passed by the Colorado voters to govern this commission, Amendment Y, inspired a new change to how County Commission districts are drawn. House Bill 1073 was signed into law and it affects the redistricting of the County Commissioner maps in the counties with five Commissioner Districts. That affects El Paso County directly, and that new process inspired by Amendment Y, is the one that the new County Clerk and Recorder must follow when they redistrict.

Why do I say the new County Clerk and Recorder? Because our current Clerk, Chuck Broerman, is term limited. There is already a primary on the Republican side for who will run for that office. I ran for the office in 2018, so of the names on the ballot, my name will have the most recognition for that position.

This is a unique opportunity with no incumbent, directly after a decennial census and redistricting year. We need a voice out there that speaks for transparency, accessibility, and the integrity of the office. We need someone speaking out against election misinformation and the security of voting; someone to speak about how efficient and accurate the mail-in ballot system is here in Colorado. These are some of the reasons I am running for County Clerk and Recorder, to bring my skills and effectiveness to the position.

Please help me with your support!
