Colorado primary election turnout trending higher than 2022 and 2024
DENVER — Martin Lavine hasn’t missed an election since he was 18 years old. Now 60, he dropped off his and his wife’s ballot by bicycle ahead of Colorado's 2026 primary Election Day on Tuesday.
“It’s not just civic duty. If you want to complain about what’s happening or have a say in the world around you, you’ve got to vote to… voice your opinion. That’s the way Americans do it,” Lavine said.
He’s not the only one who feels that way. The Denver Elections Division has their hands full sorting through thousands of mail-in ballots while preparing for a busy primary.
Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold said she is pleased with this year’s primary election so far.
