To thwart disinformation and ‘bad actors,’ Arapahoe County adopts new domain for elections website

The Denver Post: As part of an effort to combat ongoing election misinformation, Arapahoe County recently changed the domain of its elections website to give it the imprimatur of a “government-operated, trustworthy” source of voter information.

The www.arapahoevotes.com URL was changed to www.arapahoevotes.gov.

“Unlike .com domains, .gov domains can only be used by websites that have been thoroughly vetted to ensure they are the property of an official government office,” the Arapahoe County Elections Division said in a press release.
