VOTE CENTERS AS A STATE MODEL
Larimer was the first County in the state to de- velop, test, and implement the “Vote Center” model for elections. Now called Voting Service and Polling Centers, the model has been rep- licated throughout Colorado. The Vote Center model makes it easy for registered voters to participate in elections by allowing them to cast ballots at any voting location regardless of precinct or district. In short: with Vote Cen- ters, there’s no wrong place to vote!
