Share Input on Vote Centers for 2024

The Boulder County Elections Division is conducting a survey asking residents where they believe Vote Centers (Voter Service and Polling Centers) and 24-Hour Mail Ballot Drop Boxes should be located. Boulder County will have at least 19 Vote Centers open throughout the county on Election Day with some of those locations opening as early as two weeks before Election Day. The County wants to identify new Vote Centers for 2024 and review the most recently used facilities. Review and complete the survey to share your opinions.
