Where things stand the morning after #ElectionDay:

πŸ—³ Prop 119 (increase pot taxes for private, out-of-school learning opportunities): Appears to fail.

Supporters of 119 on Tuesday night conceded defeat.
πŸ—³ Prop 120 (property tax cut): Appears to fail.

By 8:45 p.m. Tuesday, 120 had the support of only about 43 percent of voters, and backers conceded it looked likely to fail.

That figure has stayed steady through the latest counts early Wednesday morning.
πŸ—³ Amendment 78 (would have given the state legislature direct authority over more aspects of state spending): Appears to fail.

Because 78 would change the state constitution, it needs at least 55% of the vote to pass. 78's organizer conceded that was unlikely to happen.

That's going to be about it here for us this Election Day.

But first, a quick recap.
Colorado had three statewide ballot measures this year.

As of right now, it appears that voters have voted down all of them.
Now, just a reminder, CPR News is not calling these races, nor is the Associated Press.

But it certainly looks like the three statewide measures have a pretty steep hill to climb if they are to pass.

And in the case of Proposition 119, supporters have conceded defeat.

Good morning. It's Election Day in Colorado!

A quick 🧡 about today #Election2021:
First: It's an off-year election. That means no marquee races and only a limited number of statewide ballot measures (in this case, three).

But locally (certainly in Denver), there's plenty of issues for you to weigh in on.
Next: It's way too late to mail back your ballot.

Find a ballot drop box, or polling place near you: sos.state.co.us/pubs/elections…

If you're in line by 7pm, you'll be able to vote.

If you haven't registered to vote yet, you can register AND vote today.

NEW: With Colorado COVID cases and hospitalizations rising, Gov. Polis signed a new health order late Sunday night that allows hospitals to refuse some patients.
There are nearly 1,200 COVID-19 patients hospitalized in Colorado β€” the most since December 2020.
Nearly 80 percent of those hospitalized with coronavirus are unvaccinated, and almost 40 percent of hospitals expect to be short staffed during the next week.

1/ More than 500 teachers, staff, students and parents from across the state have shared w/us their thoughts on schools reopening during #covid19colorado. It's a complicated conversation.

As the school year approaches, we'll keep adding to this thread. Here's what you've told us
2/

"I think Mesa County D51 is making a huge mistake. I'm a teacher there & have 3 kids in 3 schools. We'll be doing online for them bc our rate has been climbing and I don't feel they have an actual plan in place. There's nothing at all in their plan concerning SPED kids."
3/

"As a teacher, I want to be back in my classroom so badly. I didn't enjoy remote learning. I missed being with my students. I'm also really afraid to return to school. Many don't realize how difficult it will be to follow all the protocols. I feel I'm in a no-win situation."
