It's time for the state primary election.

Voters are making their picks for the state House, state Senate and Colorado's seats in the U.S. Congress.

(Need help filling out your ballot? Check out the Denverite and CPR voter guides.)

Eligible voters must be 18 years old and a U.S. citizen who has lived in Colorado for at least 22 days before June 25 (that's Election Day).

Colorado makes it easy to vote, offering same-day voter registration, 24-hour ballot boxes and a ballot tracking system via text and email.

Ballots will be mailed out to registered voters beginning Monday, June 3.  

June 17 is the last day to submit a voter registration if you want to receive a ballot in the mail.

Unaffiliated voters will receive both the Republican and Democratic party ballots, but must choose just one to fill out. Submitting both ballots will result in disqualified ballots.

Ballots being returned by mail must be sent no later than June 17.

By 7 p.m. on Election Day, ballots must either be dropped into a ballot box or voters must be in line at a polling station for their vote to be counted.

You can track your ballot and sign up for text or email notifications using BallotTrax.
