§ C.R.S. § 1-7-110Preparing to vote in person

(1) (a) When an elector appears in person to
vote, a signature card containing the elector's name and residential address, as they appear in the
statewide voter registration system created in section 1-2-301, shall be completed. Unless an
elector is registering for the first time or updating the elector's voter registration information, the
elector shall not be required to provide any information on the signature card in addition to the
elector's name, residential address, and signature.
(b) Except as provided in subsection (4) of this section, an eligible elector desiring to
vote in person shall show his or her identification as defined in section 1-1-104 (19.5), verify the
information that appears on the signature card, sign the signature card, and give the signature
card to one of the election judges. An eligible elector who is unable to write may request
assistance from one of the election judges, who shall also sign the signature card and witness the
eligible elector's mark. The signature card must provide:
I, ....................., affirm under penalty of perjury that I am a United States citizen and an eligible
elector; I have been a Colorado resident for at least twenty-two days immediately before this

election; I am registered to vote at my sole legal place of residence; I will be at least eighteen
years of age on election day; and this is the only ballot I have voted in this election.
(2) If the eligible elector shows his or her identification within the meaning of section 11-104 (19.5) and the elector's name is found on the registration list or, where applicable, the
property owner's list by the election judge in charge, the judge in charge of the pollbook or list
shall enter the eligible elector's name, and the eligible elector shall be allowed to enter the
immediate voting area. Besides the election officials, no more than four electors more than the
number of voting booths shall be allowed within the immediate voting area at one time.
(2.5) If the elector's qualification to vote is established by the completion of an affidavit,
and if the affidavit contains all of the information required in subsection (1) of this section, then
the designated election official shall consider the affidavit the signature card.
(3) The election judges shall return the signed signature cards with other election
materials to the designated election official.
(4) An eligible elector who is unable to produce identification may cast a provisional
ballot in accordance with article 8.5 of this title.
(5) An eligible elector who does not reside within the county but wishes to vote at a
polling location is entitled to receive a mail ballot or replacement mail ballot that contains the
names of candidates for statewide federal and state offices and statewide ballot issues and ballot
questions. The secretary of state shall certify the content of the ballot to the county clerk and
recorder.
(6) A registered elector who will not have been a Colorado resident for at least twentytwo days immediately before a presidential general election may cast a provisional ballot, in
accordance with article 8.5 of this title 1, that includes only a vote for president and vice
president in that general election.
