Colorado has a unique and nationally recognized voter-centric model for elections. For elections conducted by the County Clerk (Primaries, General, Presidential or odd-year coordinated November election), every active voter will receive their ballot by mail. Vote centers become available early and through election day for full voter services: registration, ballot replacement, accessible voting, etc. So the steps to vote are easy:

1. Register or update your voter registration.

2. Review your ballot.

3. Mail or drop off your ballot.

All Colorado Voters can track their ballot and will receive notifications from the Secretary of State's system. For more information or to look up your status go to www.colorado.ballottrax.net Note: Denver voters have a distinct system at https://ballottrace.org/
