Pagosa Springs Voter Center, Drop Box Re-Located Due to Ongoing Rain and Potential Flooding

Denver, November 1, 2026 - Due to severe continuing rain and flood risk in Pagosa Springs, the Archuleta County Clerk and Recorder's Office has implemented changes to its voting locations in coordination with the Secretary of State's Office and La Plata County Clerk and Recorder's Office.

Eligible voters impacted by floods who have not yet cast their ballot can visit any voter center across the state to request and receive a replacement ballot.

• Visiting a voter center within their home county will allow eligible voters to vote a ballot with all of their local contests.
• Visiting a voter center outside of their home county will allow eligible voters to vote a replacement ballot with only statewide races.
• Voters who have access to their mail ballot can return that ballot to any drop box or voter center in the state by 7:00 PM on Election Day and it will make it back to their county clerk for signature verification and tabulation.
