If you have requested a mail-in ballot, it must be returned to the County Clerk’s office by 7 p.m. on Nov. 6. POSTMARKS DO NOT COUNT. If you choose to mail your ballot back, it will require 65 cents postage. If you make a mistake or lose your mail-in ballot, you may request a replacement by calling 970-498-7820 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., or on Election Day between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.

You can also drop off your voted mail-in ballot at any vote center or the County Courthouse at 200 W. Oak St., Fort Collins, any time before the polls close.

The first unofficial results of the election will be posted on the county’s election website shortly after 7 p.m. on Tuesday, but are not official until certified by the Canvass Board, approximately two weeks later.
