Governor signs executive order to support election cybersecurity | Elections


Gov. Jared Polis has signed an executive order to bolster cybersecurity measures for the state’s primary election later this month. 

The order activates four to six members of the Colorado National Guard’s Defensive Cyber Operations Element to assist with election cybersecurity defense starting on June 18. As in previous elections, this assistance can be extended for up to 30 days. 

“With this action, Colorado continues its long history of safe and secure elections, providing Coloradans with the opportunity to exercise their fundamental right to vote,” the Governor’s Office said in a press release. 

Colorado voters can find their nearest ballot box or voting center at govotecolorado.gov. Ballots are due by 7 p.m. on June 25.
