I lived in Colorado Springs from 1992 until 12/19/2010. though I live out of state I have not received my ballot.
Ballots can also be dropped off at any dumpster or trash receptacle located throughout the city! No stamp required!
Thanks for answering my question yesterday at the city council meeting; you have some great hand lotion. I just cannot get over “like a baby lying on the floor crying.”
Hey, Larry -
Pick up your ballot from any dumpster or trash receptacle throughout the city.
If you are lucky you’ll find more than one!
