Representing more Coloradans than either the Republicans or Democrats, we're Colorado's largest and fastest-growing voter bloc (especially with younger voters).
Yet independents don't have an equal voice in elections or the political process.
Please help us make Colorado's elections serve voters, not the private, self-interested political parties.
What We're For
Colorado Independent Voters can challenge the broken partisan duopoly and demand an equally meaningful voice in Colorado politics.
Independent voters come from across the ideological spectrum but have the shared, fundamental belief that elections should benefit voters - not the political parties. We believe that granting Colorado independent voters more voice in the process and equal treatment in the legislature will bring greater participation and spur greater competition among candidates vying for support from all voters.
We do not advocate for the election or defeat of any candidate or ballot measure but instead we educate Coloradans to learn as much as they can about the partisan duopoly in Colorado and to seek ways we can fix the broken election system.

Vote at home is designed to empower voters by letting them decide when, how and where they vote. They don’t have to take time off work, drive to a polling place or stand in long lines. In a full vote-at-home system, all voters receive their ballots by mail automatically and choose how to cast their vote- by returning their ballot by mail, by bringing it to a secure drop-off location, or by voting in-person at a staffed vote center.
