Drop Boxes for the 2024 Presidential Primary Election Available Statewide

Denver, CO – Drop boxes are now available to voters, in addition to the minimum number of voting centers. This year, over 153 voting centers and 418 drop boxes will be available for Colorado voters to submit their ballots for the March 5 Presidential Primary Election.

“Coloradans have hundreds of drop boxes and voting centers available to cast their ballots,” said Secretary Griswold. “I encourage every voter to make their voice heard in the 2024 Presidential Primary.”

It is too late to return a ballot by mail and ensure it is received by county election officials by March 5. Voters should return their ballot to a drop box or voting center. Coloradans can still register to vote, receive a ballot, and vote in-person at a voting center until 7 PM on Election Day. Voters can find their closest drop box or voting center at GoVoteColorado.gov.
