How to Register to Vote

Registering to vote in Colorado is an easy process. The rules are simple: you must be a U. S. citizen, eighteen years of age at election time, and a resident of Colorado for 30 days.

To be able to vote in a primary or general election, you must register any time up to the 29th day before the election. To be eligible to vote in a primary election, your voter registration must show affiliation with a political party.

You can register to vote:
When you apply for a Colorado driver's license (Blackstock's Government Bldg., 221 N. Wisconsin - Tues. & Thurs. 8 am - 4:30 pm, 641-7927),

During a Voter Registration Drive,

Or during regular business hours at the following government locations:

Gunnison County - Blackstock's Government Bldg., 221 N. Wisconsin, Gunnison
(970-641-7927)
or at their branch office in Crested Butte's Town Hall, Tues. & Thurs. 9:30 am - 3:30 pm

If you haven't as yet registered to vote, the Gunnison Area League urges you to do so! If you have voting questions, don't hesitate to call one of the above entities or e-mail us at: contact_us@lwvgunnison.org 

HOW CAN I FIND OUT IF I AM REGISTERED TO VOTE?

Call the County Clerk's office: 641-1516, Ext. #3 - or Elections office: 641-7927.

WHAT IS THE ADVANTAGE OF REGISTERING WITH A POLITICAL PARTY?

If you register with a political party, you may participate in your party's caucus and vote in primary elections. If you register Unaffiliated, you will not be able to participate at that grassroots level or vote in the primary - you'll be able only to vote in general elections.
