BOULDER, COLO. (AP) -- Boulder County voters who cast their ballots at the Sacred Heart of Mary Catholic Church will have to walk past an anti-abortion display that includes thousands of crosses representing aborted fetuses.

County election officials say the display does not appear to violate any rules for polling places, but they will allow voters to vote elsewhere on Tuesday. Officials say they will no longer use the church as a polling place.

According to the Boulder Daily Camera, the display was put up in October for Respect Life Month and it was left up on orders from church officials.
