Today is Election Day!

Mailed ballots MUST be received by 7 p.m. on Election Day (postmarks don’t count!), so if you didn’t mail your ballot back by Oct. 30, you’ll need to either vote in person, or drop your ballot off at an official ballot drop box.

In-Person Voting

In-person voting is NOT available at Golden City Hall this year. All voters are encouraged to take advantage of convenient ballot drop-boxes instead.

If you wish to vote in person, please visit the Jefferson County Elections page for information on Voter Service and Polling Centers (VSPC).

Ballot Drop Boxes

If you prefer to drop off your ballot, there are numerous ballot drop boxes in Jefferson County, including the 24-Hour Ballot Drop Box located in the entryway at Golden City Hall, 911 10th Street.

Drop boxes will open October 16 and are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week until November 7, 7 p.m.
