No write-in vote for any municipal office shall be counted unless an affidavit of intent to be a write-in candidate has been filed with the Town Clerk by the person wishing to be a write-in candidate not later than sixty-four (64) days before the day of the election. The affidavit of intent must indicate the office to which the affiant desires election and that the affiant is qualified to assume the office if elected. For purposes of this Section, in computing time for any act to be done before any municipal election, the method set forth in C.R.S. §31-10-103, as amended, shall be controlling and is by this reference incorporated herein.
If the only matter before the voters in a municipal election is the election of persons to office and if, at the close of business on the sixty-fourth day before the municipal election, there are not more candidates than offices to be filled at such election, including candidates filing affidavits of intent for write-in candidates, the Town Clerk, if instructed by resolution of the Board of Trustees either before or after such date, shall cancel the election and by resolution declare the candidates elected. Upon the adoption of a resolution declaring the candidates elected, the candidates shall be deemed elected to their respective offices. In the event of the cancellation of the municipal election, notice of such cancellation shall be published in a newspaper having general circulation within the Town, if possible; however, in the event that such publication shall be of no effect for any reason, in order to inform the electors of the Town of the cancellation of the municipal election, then public notice of such cancellation shall be posted at each designated polling place in the Town, the front door of Town Hall and any other location deemed appropriate by the Town Clerk.
