Thinking about running for a county elected office as an unaffiliated candidate for the upcoming General Election?
Unaffiliated candidates must submit petition signatures in order to appear on the ballot. (Today is the first day petition can be circulated & be returned by July9)
Petition requirements, signature totals, and filing deadlines can vary depending on the office being sought, so it’s important to review the current Colorado election laws and deadlines early in the process.

Potential candidates should contact their local County Clerk’s Office for official petition forms, candidate requirements, and filing information.

If you’ve ever considered serving your community, now is the time to start learning about the process.
