Golden must redistrict ahead of 2025 municipal election

Some Goldenites’ ballots will look a little different this fall, as the city is required to redistrict due to an imbalance of registered voters among its four wards.

However, exactly which Goldenites will be changing wards is still being determined.

The city charter mandates that all wards maintain about the same number of registered voters. The difference between the highest and lowest wards cannot exceed 15%, as city staff explained at the Feb. 11 City Council work session.

A review is required every four years. The city last examined it in 2019, but hasn’t needed to redistrict since 2007, according to City Clerk Monica Mendoza.
