Larimer County Clerk and Recorder Angela Myers requested that Collegian newspapers be removed from the racks at the north end of the Lory Student Center on Tuesday morning, citing electioneering.

Electioneering is defined by Colorado statute 1-13-714 as “campaigning for or against any candidate and/or ballot issue that is on the ballot,” according to the Larimer County official website.

Myers said the Collegian was the only newspaper moved because it had a picture of  U.S. Sen. Democratic Mark Udall prominently on the cover. Udall, who appeared on campus Monday, is running for re-election and is opposed by U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner.
