Voter Registration for Elections

To be eligible to vote in Colorado, you must be:

• A U.S. citizen
• At least 18-years-old by the time of the election
• A resident of Colorado for at least 22 days before the election
• Must not be serving a sentence of confinement or detention for a felony conviction. Note: Those on probation or parole are eligible to vote. 

Identification Requirements

• While you do not need to have a Colorado ID, Colorado Driver's License or other form of acceptable identification in order to register, you must produce this documentation the first time you vote.  
• Thus, it is recommended to provide this documentation during this registration process to avoid needing to mail in a form of identification when you vote. 

Visit the Colorado Secretary of State website for a list of Acceptable Forms of Identification.
