Mail-in ballot blues?

Wondering about your mail-in ballot that’s still sitting on the kitchen counter? Thinking maybe it’s too late to vote?

It’s not. Larimer County has done a bang-up job of providing both drop-off and Voter Service and Polling Centers for the Nov. 4 election.

While mail-in ballots can be dropped off at King Soopers and Safeway stores in Fort Collins, be aware that if you need to register to vote, change your address or receive a new ballot, you’ll need to visit a Voter Service and Polling Center (different from drop-off only locations).

Voter Service and Polling Centers closest to the North Forty News readership area will be open only on Election Day, Nov. 4 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. They are as follows:

American Legion Hall, 2124 CR54G, LaPorte
Red Feather Lakes POA, 58 Firehouse Lane, Red Feather Lakes
River of Life Fellowship, 3161 ECR62E, Wellington
