Why Voting Matters

In Conejos County, the people who show up to vote decide who represents everyone. The next election for Conejos County voters is Colorado's 2028 presidential primary, on a date the governor will set no later than March 21, 2028, though a statewide ballot issue could come first on November 2, 2027; local elections can come sooner, so check your local election office. With health care and retail among the county's biggest employers, issues like health care costs are decided by the officials voters choose.

In the 2024 presidential election, about 4,100 ballots were cast in Conejos County, down about 5% from 4,330 in 2020. With roughly 5,760 adults living in the county, that is around 71% of adult residents, above the statewide rate of about 68%.

Around 1,660 adults here did not vote for president. Some aren't eligible, yet the rest are untapped power: one more voter in every 20 of them would mean about 83 extra Conejos County ballots, enough to change the result in many close contests.
