 When an election is ordered by the board of county commissioners of any county on the question of removal or location of the county seat, it is the duty of such board of county commissioners to appoint special judges and registers of such elections, and to provide a special ballot box in each voting precinct in which shall be deposited all the ballots cast at such election in such precinct on the question of location or removal of the county seat.

ANNOTATION   The constitutional prohibition against local or special laws in certain enumerated cases, locating or changing county seats being one of those cases, was held to be wholly prospective and intended to affect only future legislation. People v. Bd. of County Comm'rs, 6 Colo. 202 (1882).   Construction with general election laws. Although registration of electors to vote on the question of removal of a county seat is governed by this and the following sections, they are not exclusive but must be construed with the provisions concerning general elections. People ex rel. Roberg v. Bd. of Comm'rs, 86 Colo. 249 , 281 P. 117 (1929).   The section governing registration of electors does not repeal this article concerning elections for the removal of county seats. People ex rel. Roberg v. Bd. of Comm'rs, 86 Colo. 249 , 281 P. 117 (1929).   In the absence of fraud and where there is a substantial compliance with the statute, informalities and innocent departures on the part of the election board in the matter of an election to remove a county seat, will not render the election void, where it appears that there was a conscientious determination on the part of the election officials to ascertain the will of the electorate on the question submitted, which was carried into effect. People ex rel. Roberg v. Bd. of Comm'rs, 86 Colo. 249 , 281 P. 117 (1929).   The act of February 11, 1881, was intended to establish a uniform procedure regulating all elections concerning county seats, and it applies to the conduct of an election for the permanent location of a county seat. Town of Sugar City v. Bd. of Comm'rs, 57 Colo. 432 , 140 P. 809 (1914).   Since the act of 1881 was inconsistent with and repugnant to former legislation upon this subject, although it contained no repealing clause, it was well settled that, notwithstanding such omission, so much of former legislation as was in conflict with the latter provisions was impliedly repealed.

 It is the duty of the judges and registers so appointed to make a special registration of the voters of each precinct who have resided in the county at least six months, and in such precinct at least ninety days, prior to the day designated for holding such election, which day shall be the day designated by law for holding a general election, and no other.

ANNOTATION   It was purely a question for the general assembly as to whether the same rule should be adopted as to residence in the case of an election to locate a county seat, as § 2 of art. XIV, Colo. Const., had already adopted in the case of an election upon the question of removal of a county seat, and the length of residence required in the latter case was definitely fixed by the constitution, and the general assembly was left free to determine the qualifications of voters at an election upon the question of the location of a county seat, unquestionably, since there is no specific constitutional inhibition, and the statute is general, applying alike to all similarly situated, the general assembly had the power and authority to enact it.
