Ballots for the June 25 primary election started going out to voters in Teller county beginning June 3.

This year voters will choose Democratic and Republican representatives from a slew of federal, state and county offices to face each other in the Nov. 5 general election.

In Teller County, incumbent Republican Commissioners Dan Williams and Erik Stone are running unopposed for reelection in districts 1 and 3, respectively. Incumbent Treasurer Krystal Brown, a Republican, is also running unopposed.

Voters will also select their candidates for the 4th Judicial District Attorney. In the primary, incumbent Michael Allen, a Republican, faces Republican challenger David Willson, a court-appointed attorney. This fall, either Allen or Willson will face the only Democrat in the race, Jeremy Dowell, an attorney who represents Colorado Springs-area children in the juvenile justice system.

In primary elections, unaffiliated voters receive a ballot packet containing a Republican candidate ballot and a Democratic candidate ballot. However, unaffiliated voters may only vote and return one ballot; they should destroy and discard the other ballot, El Paso County Clerk and Recorder Steve Schleiker’s office said in a news release Monday.

If unaffiliated voters return both ballots voted, neither ballot will be counted.
