Monday is the last day to request a mail ballot

Boulder County – Monday, October 31 is the last day for a voter to
register or change their voter mailing address and still receive a ballot in
the mail. If making changes online, this can be done at www.GoVoteColorado.com until just
before midnight on Monday. After
October 31, a person can still register and vote in the General Election (see voter
registration requirements
), but they will need to visit a Voter Service
Center in person in order to request a ballot.

For
those interested in how elections and ballot processing works, Boulder
County Clerk and Recorder Hillary Hall will host an elections open house /
ballot processing tours on Wednesday, November 2 and Monday, November 7, at the
Elections Division Ballot Processing Center. Visitors will be able to observe workers processing
ballots for the Tuesday, November 8 General Election. No RSVP needed.

Finally, a few important reminders:
