A Colorado Official State Logo Initiative did not make the November 4, 2014 ballot in Colorado as an initiated state statute or an initiated constitutional amendment. The measure would have required the official Colorado logo for all purposes to be a scaled version of the current Colorado flag.[1][2]
Background
Whether this measure would have been an initiated state statute or an initiated constitutional amendment was unclear in the draft initiative. Section 1 of Article V of the Colorado Constitution requires all proposed initiatives to amend either the constitution or state law. The memo advised the proponents of the initiative that, "The proposed initiative should be revised to indicate whether it amends the Colorado constitution or the Colorado Revised Statutes and to show where in the constitution or statutes its provisions should be inserted."[1]
Supporters
- Lisa Brumfield, primary proponent
- Peter Coulter, second proponent
Lisa Brumfield and Peter Coulter were also proponents for the following 2014 initiatives:
Coulter, additionally, was a proponent for Colorado No Clemency for Death Penalty by Governor Initiative (2014).
Path to the ballot
Whether the measure would have amended the constitution or state law, supporters would have had to gather 86,105 valid signatures by Monday, August 4 at 3:00 PM for the measure to appear on the ballot. The measure, however, did not move forward.[3]
