Palmer Lake, Colorado Public Records

Those who miss the deadline can still register and vote in person through Election Day using Same Day Registration at voter service and polling centers. As a universal mail ballot state, Colorado automatically sends all active registered voters a mail ballot for every election approximately 18-22 days before Election Day. Municipal elections in the town select the mayor and town trustees, typically held on the first Tuesday in April during odd-numbered years. Voters can research local candidates, ballot measures, and sample ballots through the El Paso County Elections website, which posts ballot information before each election. Residents can locate ballot drop-box locations or in-person voting centers using the lookup tool at www.govotecolorado.gov or the El Paso County elections site. Public election records in Colorado include voter registration lists (available for purchase for political purposes), campaign finance reports filed with the Colorado Secretary of State (searchable at www.sos.state.co.us/campaign), candidate filings and statements, and precinct-level election results. While absentee and mail ballots are automatically sent to all voters, residents can also request replacement ballots or vote in person at voter service and polling centers beginning 15 days before Election Day through Election Day itself.
