Voter resources for the Nov. 3, 2026, General Election

Ballots for the Nov. 3, 2026, General Election are arriving in the mail for eligible Douglas County voters. This election’s ballot is longer than average because it includes numerous statewide measures, along with county and municipal contests and measures.

“One of the great benefits of Colorado’s mail ballot process is that voters have time to review their ballot and official election resources before making their decisions,” said Douglas County Clerk and Recorder Sheri Davis. “Voters can do this from home and then return their completed ballot by mail, at a secure ballot drop box, or at a Voter Service and Polling Center.”

The On the Ballot page at DouglasCOVotes.gov has a composite sample ballot showing all districts and contests in Douglas County, along with links to resources that can help voters review their choices.

What to know about Ballot Issue 7A
Front Range Passenger Rail District Ballot Issue 7A appears on every Douglas County ballot. Following a change to the district’s boundaries under Senate Bill 26-172, the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office has provided guidance to Douglas County to count only votes from voters within the updated rail district boundaries. In Douglas County, those boundaries include the portion of the municipality of Littleton that is within Douglas County and Sterling Ranch Colorado Metropolitan Districts Nos. 1 through 7.

You do not need a new ballot. Complete and return the ballot you received as usual. Only votes from eligible voters will be counted on Issue 7A. Whether you vote on Issue 7A or leave it blank, your choices on the rest of your ballot will not be affected.

Resources to help you review your ballot
The State of Colorado Ballot Information Booklet, often called the Blue Book, explains statewide ballot measures. It includes summaries, arguments for and against each measure, and fiscal information. It also provides information about judges appearing on the ballot for retention. The Blue Book is mailed to active registered voters and is linked on the On the Ballot page.

The Douglas County Ballot Issue Notices Booklet, often called the TABOR Book, provides information about local tax issues subject to the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights. It does not include every local question on the ballot. The booklet is also available through the On the Ballot page.

Whether you return your ballot by mail, at a ballot drop box, or at a Voter Service and Polling Center, Douglas County Elections must receive it by 7 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2026. An Election Day postmark does not count.
