Description | Boulder County District Attorney Michael Dougherty announced Friday his office has filed charges against Democratic state Rep. Tracey Bernett of Longmont, alleging she falsified her residency for purposes of running for House District 12.
Bernett — running for her third term in next week's election — is charged with three felonies and two misdemeanors. She surrendered and posted a personal recognizance bond of $10,000. Her first court appearance is set for Nov. 17.
Bernett was originally elected to represent House District 12 in 2020. However, when new maps were drawn for the General Assembly by the independent redistricting commission, Bernett's home, on Crestview Lane in Longmont, was drawn into House District 19. That district is represented by Republican Rep. Dan Woog of Erie, who's running for his second term. |
