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.
