- If you are a registered voter in the State of Colorado and either a resident of the District and/or a property owner within the District, you are eligible to vote and encouraged to participate in the process! As an eligible voter, as determined by the El Paso County Clerk and Recorder and El Paso County Assessor, and if you have requested a Permanent Absentee Ballot from the District in the past, a ballot will be mailed directly to you. If you would like to be added to the Permanent Absentee Ballot list, you may fill out and application found on the Cherokee website or available upon request at our District office, and be added to that list. The State dictates that the voter, a family member or member of the household may turn in and/or sign a Permanent Absentee Ballot Request Form, also referred to as a Permanent Mail-In Ballot Request Form. As long as you submit that request before the close of business on April 25, 2023 (a date set by the State of Colorado), you will be mailed a ballot. You may drop off that request form or mail it to our District head quarters at 6250 Palmer Park Blvd, 80915.

Therefore, you may not use the payment drop box to drop off your ballot. If you need assistance, our Designated Election Official or other official designee will gladly meet you at your vehicle to receive whatever election material you may need to deliver, whether it is your Absentee Ballot Request or your actual ballot. Simply call ahead to 719-597-5080 and we will meet you at your vehicle.
