Presidential Primary 2020: Ballots Sent To Arvada Voters

ARVADA, CO — Election officials have begun mailing ballots for the 2020 presidential primary to voters in Jefferson and Adams counties. Ballots can take up to eight days to arrive, and ballots are not ordered by address, so spouses and roommates sometimes receive their ballots on different days.

On Jan. 18, ballots were mailed to all military and overseas voters.

Coloradans will cast their votes in three elections in 2020 — the first of which is on March 3 — Super Tuesday.

Elections officials are encouraging Coloradans to make sure they are registered to vote and that their voter registration is up to date.
