Colorado Springs Municipal Election

New Era staff help students vote in November 2024.

Election Day is April 1–so mark your calendar and remember to vote or be in line by 7 p.m.!


Why vote in local elections? City councils are one of the most powerful forces shaping our daily lives. They have the power to do things like increase the minimum wage, create affordable housing, and ensure our parks and public spaces are cared for. City councils can build a thriving economy for everyone. And every tax dollar? They determine how it’s spent. So it’s important to elect people who will fight for you and your future.

Remember: In Colorado, it is never too late to register to vote. You can register to vote or update your registration online by March 23 here to receive your ballot in the mail.

After that, you’ll need to register in person at the Colorado Springs Administration Building. Just be in line by 7 p.m. on Election Day.
