Voting in Colorado begins weeks before Election Day as ballots start to be mailed out Oct. 11. MSU Denver encourages all Roadrunners to confirm their voter-registration status and remake a voting plan to ensure that their voices are heard and counted.
In addition to the new MSU Denver Civic Guide, which offers a plethora of campus-specific advocacy and engagement information, check out the following tips:
Voting preparation tips
- Check your voter-registration status and ensure that everything is up to date. If it is outdated or you are not registered, there’s still time to update it and register to vote. Colorado has same-day registration, allowing you to register and cast your ballot on the same day, if you are an eligible voter.
- Use the State Ballot Information Booklet to learn more about the statewide measures on your ballot.
- Visit the state’s Elections and Voting page for more information on voter registration, election dates, issues and ways to engage.
- Locate where to drop off your ballot and where you can vote in person.
- Drop off your ballot or be in line to vote by 7 p.m. on Nov. 5.
- Once you vote, securely track your ballot to check if there are any barriers that may prevent it from counting.
