Here are the top stories in Boulder today:

1. CU's honeybee study finds connections to human realm. Researchers have discovered that cluster bees provide clues into more resilient structures and designs in the human world. (Yahoo!)
2. Metro area rental management companies accused of overcharging for rent. An algorithmic price-fixing scheme that has allegedly inflated rental rates is now a class-action lawsuit against some of the nation's largest landlords, including several in Colorado. (FOX31)
3. You can vote early and in-person during the 2022 election. There's nothing difficult about voting in Colorado. In fact, beginning today, a state-mandated number of drop boxes and voting centers must be available to voters. According to the Secretary of State's office: "voting in Colorado is accessible to all eligible voters, regardless of zip code." (Prime Time)
4. Buying booze in Colorado will drastically change if all of these ballot items pass. The fight over the state's liquor laws go back even before prohibition. And small liquor stores have the most to lose. With three proposals on the ballot — propositions 124, 125 and 126 — it would open up those markets to chain liquor stores, national grocery stores.
