A Colorado elections overhaul that includes same-day voter registration and mailing ballots to all voters has been signed into law. Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper signed the bill Friday afternoon. Republicans raised concerns about voter fraud and no GOP lawmakers voted for the bill. But Democrats who sponsored the legislation say the goal is to enfranchise more voters and make it easier to vote. They argue the fraud concerns are unfounded.
With the bill, every registered voter will get a ballot by mail, but they could still vote in person. They could vote at any of the voting centers established by the bill, instead of the current system of going to a designated precinct polling place.
