Requirements to register to vote in Colorado:

Ballots

Frisco Municipal Elections are conducted by mail ballot. There is no in-person polling center with machines and paper in-person ballots. Frisco voters may obtain replacement ballots, or newly issued ballots, from the Town Clerk, during business hours at Town Hall, but only once ballots are in the possession of the Town Clerk from the printer. Ballots will be mailed to all active registered Frisco voters 22 days in advance of Election Day. Voters should allow a minimum of 48 hours for the USPS to distribute your ballot to your Post Office box/mailing address. If a mail ballot is not received, check your voter registration status at GoVoteColorado.gov to see if any updates are required before requesting a replacement ballot from the Town Clerk’s Office. The Town Clerk cannot modify your voter registration record on the voter’s behalf for the purposes of issuing a ballot. The official drop-off location for all Frisco Regular Municipal Election ballots is the 24-hour, secure ballot drop box in the Town Hall atrium. Ballots must be in possession of the Town Clerk by 7:00PM on Election Day to be counted. Ballots may be returned by mail but must have sufficient postage from the voter applied to the return envelope, before being placed in the mail. Postmarks do not count for late receipt.
