What happens if your ballot was rejected in Colorado?

DENVER ( KDVR ) — If you’ve already mailed in your vote, your civic duty may not be done just yet. The Office of the Clerk and Recorder is sending back rejected ballots that still need some work before they can be counted.

Your ballot could’ve been rejected for several reasons, one being that you’re missing some information. This usually happens when your signature is missing from your ballot or your signature doesn’t match the one on file at the Office of the Clerk and Recorder.

Where you can vote before Election Day in the Denver area

While the option to mail in your ballot ended Monday, there are still a few ways you can fix your ballot for the November 2024 general election or in some cases even after Election Day.

How to cure your ballot

If your mail-in ballot was rejected, you should get mail back from the Office of the Clerk and Recorder or a ballot rejection message from BallotTrax with a few options to cure your ballot.

The mail includes a signature affidavit form, which you can either sign on the physical form mailed to your address and mail, email or fax the form to the office, or you can sign the form online by texting “Colorado” to 2VOTE (28683), which will send you a link to complete the affidavit form.
