The League of Women Voters believes in representative government and in the individual liberties established in the Constitution of the United States.

GOAL:  In the lead up to the 2026 Midterm Elections, League hopes to build voter confidence, share factual information about voter registration and voting, and support safe and accessible participation in the elections.


For more than 100 years, we have provided voters with clear, factual information about where candidates stand, hosted nonpartisan candidate forums, and worked to ensure every eligible voter can access the ballot.  We empower voters to make informed choices based on their own values.

Our elections are strongest when we show up, speak out, and refuse to be intimidated. Every eligible voter deserves a fair shot, an equal vote, and the confidence that their voice matters. We will decide our future, choose our leaders, and make our voices heard at the ballot box. Voting is People Power!

Things to know and do to make your voice heard:

  • Voting in Denver is Easy, Secure, Accurate

  • Check Your Registration Status - Go Vote Colorado

  • Vote Early and Deliver to Drop Box  - Just Vote Colorado

  • Encourage Others and Assist in Delivering Ballots

  • Extra Credit - Be a Poll Worker!

 


League response to potential federal interference in our local elections

The power to run elections rests with Congress and the states, not the White House. 

"The League of Women Voters stands ready to return to court if necessary. We will challenge any executive action that suppresses voters, undermines free and fair elections, or violates the constitutional framework that protects our democracy."
Statement from the League of Women Voters on Reported Elections Executive Order

The administration's latest executive order ("EO") is a direct attack not only on voters, but on how elections are run in this country.

Fraudulent Voting Does Not Occur in Colorado

The ultra-conservative, right-wing Heritage Foundation found only 24 cases of voter fraud in Colorado from 1982 to 2025. 43 years! Only 1 of those cases was noncitizen voting.  All 24 cases led to criminal convictions.  Source
