Backers of five proposed ballot measures beat the Friday deadline and submitted petition signatures for verification, bringing the total number of possible ballot measures voters could face in the November general election to 11.

Boxes of petition signatures were turned in that would ask voters whether to allow local governments to ban oil-and-gas development, triple the taxes on a pack of cigarettes and require county clerks to send unaffiliated voters ballots for Republican and Democratic candidates during the primary election.

Today was the final day for citizens attempting to put a measure on the Nov. 8 ballot to turn in their petition signatures to the Colorado Secretary of State’s office.

The Colorado Secretary of State’s office listed the five measures turned in before the 3 p.m. deadline:

Local government authority to regulate oil-and-gas development: No. 75Mandatory setback for oil/gas development: No. 78New cigarette and tobacco taxes: No. 143Primary elections: No. 98Presidential primary election: No. 140

The office will now conduct a 5-percent random sample of submitted signatures to determine whether the proposals meet the threshold to make the ballot. To get on the ballot, proponents need to submit 98,492 valid voter signatures – 5 percent of the total votes cast for all candidates for Colorado Secretary of State in the last general election.

The office has 30 days after signatures are submitted, or until Sept. 7, to announce whether these five proposals made the ballot.

Backers of measures who earlier turned in their signature petitions and await a ruling from the secretary of state are:

State minimum wage: No. 101Medical aid in dying: No. 145Requirements for constitutional amendments: No. 96

The only citizen initiative already confirmed on the ballot is Amendment 69, the ColoradoCare universal health care measure. The office determined last November enough valid signatures were submitted to put the issue before voters.

Also on the ballot are two measures referred by the Colorado General Assembly: Amendment T, regarding servitude, and Amendment U, regarding property taxes.

In addition, the Denver Metro Scientific and Cultural Facilities Board put Ballot Issue 4B (PDF), a sales-and-use tax measure, on ballots in the counties of Adams, Arapahoe, Broomfield, Boulder, Denver, Douglas (except Castle Rock and Larkspur) and Jefferson.

Earlier, high-profile liquor measures and a proposal dealing with the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights were pulled by their sponsors after signature-gathering had started.
