ELECTION 2020

We recommend that you drop your ballots off at a local Elbert County Drop Box rather than mailing them or vote in person at the Samuel Elbert Building in Kiowa. You can vote in person on Election Day at Spring Valley Golf Club and at the Elizabeth Town Hall, from 7am - 7pm.   We highly recommend you vote in person prior to Election Day for several reasons:  weather in Colorado is always a risk, the Governor is imposing more and more Covid restrictions and you will likely find very long lines.  

We feel it is now TOO LATE TO MAIL YOUR BALLOT!

If you do not receive your ballot, go to the Elbert County Elections Office, 440 Comanche Street, Kiowa and let them know.  They can help you.

Attached is a map of the Ballot Drop Box locations.  They are open October 12 through November 3, 7:00pm.  All ballots must be received by 7:00pm on November 3.  A new drop box has been added at the Singing Hills Fire Station.   For the exact location of the drop box at each location, visit the Elbert County Elections website here.

VOTER REGISTRATION:  Visit www.GoVoteColorado.gov to register to vote up to election day.  Find your existing registration, make changes, download forms, view the status of your ballot, & more.  Do you want to register to vote, but don't yet have your Driver's License? You can use your Social Security number to register to vote.  When you turn your ballot in, you will need some proof of residence.

BALLOT PICK-UP:  If you cannot deliver your ballot in person, Ron Turner, a member of the EC Republican Central Committee can be contacted to arrange a pick-up.  Colorado law allows for any one person to hand deliver ballots from nine other voters plus their own for a total of 10. Its commonly referred to as “ballot harvesting” but the 10 limit is legal in Colorado.

Please check with any of your neighbors, friends and relatives who might need your help with this.

Ron can be contacted at (303) 840-2038 or at cayuserdt@live.com.
