Summarize:

If you don’t have access to the internet or a printer, you can also pick up one of these forms at any federal, state, or local government office that provides voter registration services or applications.  Other locations to pick up a registration form include Department of Motor Vehicle offices, armed forces recruitment centers, and voter service and polling centers. The URL for the Secretary of State’s website is: https://www.sos.state.co.us/. You can access this form by following the “Register to Vote” link. You can also register in person through a voter registration drive. You can find out more about these drives, including when they’re held, on the Secretary of State’s website under the “Elections” tab. Checking “Yes” confirms that you’re a US citizen and are thus able to vote in Colorado. The information you’ll have to provide includes your name, date of birth, residential and mailing address, and your driver’s license or ID card number. If you don’t have a Colorado driver’s license or ID card, you can also put down the last 4 digits of your Social Security number instead. The way that Colorado elections work, you have to be either affiliated with a party or officially considered unaffiliated in order to vote in primary elections. However, this isn’t required to register to vote in general elections.  You can also indicate on your registration form that you’d like to remain unaffiliated but you’d still like to receive a particular party’s primary ballots in the mail. If you don’t receive this ballot in the mail, you can still choose a particular party’s ballots in person at the voting station. Be advised that you can only participate in a single party’s primary elections during any election cycle. Avoid having any mistakes in your name, birthday, address, or driver’s license number. Be sure to add the date next to your signature. Be sure to mail out your form at least 8 days before Election Day in order for it to be processed in time for you to receive a ballot by mail. The location of your local county clerk and recorder’s office can be found at https://www.sos.state.co.us/voter/pages/pub/home.xhtml.  When you visit this website, follow the “County Election Offices” link to find your local office. You can also mail it to the Colorado Department of State Elections Division in Denver. The address for this office is: 1700 Broadway, Suite 200, Denver, CO, 80290. In addition to the county clerk and recorder’s office, you can also bring the form to any voter service and polling center in your local area. Note that you have to turn in your form in person if Election Day is less than a week away.  You can also turn in your form to a local DMV branch if you’re also applying for a driver’s license or updating your license information. This form can be submitted to a voter service and polling center all the way through Election Day.
