Colorado has a voting system in which all active, registered voters receive a ballot in the mail. Voters also have the option to vote in person at a Voter Service and Polling Center (VSPC). Watch this video on the different ways to cast your ballot.
In order to receive your ballot in the mail, you must register to vote, or update your address/registration if necessary, within 8 days of the Election.
After the deadline, you can still register to vote or update your registration and receive your ballot, but it must be done at one of our Voter Service & Polling Centers through Election Day.
Elections in Colorado are conducted by mail ballot. Voters are mailed their ballot and can fill it out at their
convenience. To return their voted ballot, voters may:
- drop off the ballot in one of our 24/7 secure ballot drop boxes throughout the County
- drop it off at a Voter Service and Polling Center
- mail it with adequate postage – Important! Ballots must be received by the Clerk and Recorder’s Office by the deadline of 7:00 p.m. on Election Day. Postmarks do not count!
Voter Service and Polling Centers (VSPCs) are one-stop vote locations where you can register to vote, update your registration, vote in person and drop off your voted mail ballot all in one place. For each election, we will have several conveniently located VSPCs throughout El Paso County.
You may go to any VSPC to transact business, drop your ballot or vote.
