1. You should point your browser to https://myballot.sos.colorado.gov.
From this page, you can choose to vote a ballot or view your sample ballot. If
you are an uncommitted voter (i.e., no party affiliation), you will be able to
choose a Democratic or a Republican ballot.
2. To vote a ballot, you need to supply
the following verification information:
A. Your first and last name,
B. Your date of birth,
C. Your county, and
D. Your State ID number or the last four
digits of your Social Security Number.
3. Immediately after you have been
verified, the ballot is presented on screen. You can then mark the ballot and
ensure that all of the choices are correct using your screen reader.
4. Once the ballot has been marked and
verified, the system will prompt you to print both the ballot and a ballot
application form. The application form will already have been filled out by the
system prior to printing. You must sign the application in the blank area at
the bottom of the application page. If you forget this important step, your
ballot will be rejected. If you cannot see the print on the page at all, you
can be assured that the bottom half of the application page is blank. This is
where you can place your signature.
5. You should place both the ballot and
the printed application in an envelope, write “Official Ballot enclosed” on the
envelope beneath the delivery address, and return the envelope to your county
clerk either at a drop box, a voter service and polling center, or through the
mail. It is important that you include the signed application with your ballot;
this is the only way that your county clerk will be able to validate your
ballot.
You can insert the ballot and
ballot application into the return envelope that you received in the mail as a
part of the regular ballot mailing process, but if you do this, you must be
sure to sign your name on the left side of the back of the ballot return
envelope.
6. You can visit the website
www.govotecolorado.com to update your voter registration information; this
information needs to be current in order to access the online ballot marking
system. You can also visit this website to find the nearest voter service and
polling center and drop box or to check on the status of your ballot.

you can download a PDF file containing the complete Roster of County Clerks and
Recorders at this link:

This file is accessible to screen reading technology for the blind.
