In 2014, Colorado conducted its first all mail-back partisan election. Pew Charitable Trusts, as a part of a commitment to support more accessible and convenient election procedures in the country, partnered with Ciruli Associates and researchers from the Rice University and other colleges to study Colorado’s mail-back procedures to gauge voter sense of ballot security and convenience and to study cost efficiency.
The study included a large voter telephone survey conducted by Ciruli Associates during the mail-back voting period and shortly after Election Day. More than 1,500 individuals were contacted. As reported last week by Pew, voters stated satisfaction with mail-back voting, but for a variety of reasons, two-thirds (64%) returned the ballots in person. Personal return was convenient in drop boxes or voter centers, and voters were more secure ensuring their ballot was personally delivered.
