Ballots returned: June 14, 2018  

DENVER, June 14, 2018 -- Colorado Secretary of State Wayne Williams announced today that so far 234,065 Coloradans have returned ballots.

This is the first primary election where unaffiliated voters are allowed to automatically participate. Unaffiliated voters who expressed a preference for a Republican or Democrat ballot were sent that party's ballot, but those who did not were sent both ballots with the caveat: Only vote one. If you vote both, neither ballot will count.

The new style of report reflects information about unaffiliated voters. "Pkt" refers to "packets" for unaffiliated voters who got both ballots in the mail. In some cases, counties have reported which ballot the voter chose and in some cases the ballots have been received but the ballot party has not yet been tallied. 

Starting Tuesday, June 19, our office will issue a ballot-return report every weekday through the June 26 primary.

Williams in March launched the UChooseCO campaign to stress to unaffiliated voters to pick a ballot.
