The clock is ticking with Ballots for the 2025 November Election due at 7pm on Tuesday, November 4.  The Chamber has worked with more than 100 of our members to create insight and value to you as you prepare to vote.  As a reminder, the Chamber is strongly encouraging a Yes vote on:  Larimer County Ballot Issue 1A and 1B as well as City of Fort Collins Ballot Issue 2A.
In addition to these recommendations, we are providing a number of election resources to assist business owners, employees and residents in making informed voting decisions.  Check out our website: 2025 General Election – Fort Collins Area Chamber of Commerce.
There you’ll find the written responses of each mayor and city candidate to questions covering a range of policy issues, with a focus on business and economic concerns.  We have also included links to videos provided by the candidates. We are also sharing a ballot scorecard, highlighting the positions of each candidate on policy issues the Fort Collins Area Chamber has addressed on behalf of business community interests.

To be clear, the Fort Collins Area Chamber is not endorsing candidates this year. We’ve learned that our elected leaders are a more receptive audience when they recognize we go hard on policy, not the politics. That said, we are outspoken regarding the policy issues at stake in each election and on which side each candidate falls.  After in-depth review of questionnaires, videos, public votes, public comments, websites and more by staff, the Election Committee and the Board, we are sharing insight into key business community interests at stake in this year’s City Council and Mayor election and what we’ll be looking for in each candidate.  And make sure to pay attention to our change this year to Rank Choice Voting.  The City and County have created wonderful tools to help you understand how this change in voting will work.

We are honored to be your resource and business voice and encourage you to VOTE!
