Rumor versus Reality

Voter Registrars get information about deceased voters from various government resources, such as the Social Security Ad- ministration, death certificates, jury Information, and probate records.

Voter Registrars take initiatives to proactively maintain voter list by checking obituaries, researching county records, and checking voter rolls in Colorado County are worked daily.

If a family member passes away and you take care of their final business, it is helpful to re -

port it to the election office.

An individual is required to show a picture ID when they vote in person.

Individuals voting by mail have a signature and ID verifica tion process.

If an absentee ballot is returned before a person dies, there is a verification process to deter mine whether that vote should be counted.

If you receive a piece of election literature in the mail for a deceased family member it does no harm to call and check status of their voter registration with our office, however, please remember many third parties sending this type of information out have very old voter registration rosters.
