There are more than 210,000 registered voters in Boulder County.

Are you one of them?

With little more than a month to go before voters select the next president, there's still time -- but not much -- to make sure you're involved in the democratic process.

First and foremost, eligible voters should note that the final date to register in Colorado is Monday.

Those interested in getting registered, updating their registration address or finding out whether or not they already are registered can do so at www.voteboulder.org.

This Web site, run through the Boulder County Clerk and Recorder's Office, offers voters a one-stop online resource for a variety of election information and voting options, including early voting and finding assigned polling places.

Many voters, however, are opting to go the mail-in route.

"We have 88,000 people signed up for mail-in ballots this year," said Hillary Hall, Boulder County's clerk and recorder.

That figure dwarfs the 28,000 voters who opted for mail-in ballots in the 2004 election.

"The biggest advantage of a mail-in ballot is that this year's ballot is really long, so it allows you the time to study it and vote at your own pace," Hall said.

Because this year's ballot includes a number of state legislative amendments, in addition to the national and state elections, another resource soon available to voters is the "blue book."

The State Ballot Information Booklet, compiled by the Colorado State Legislative Council, is a bi-partisan effort to present ballot information to voters, which will be sent in the mail next week.

"The Legislative Council's job is to present the information in a neutral fashion," Hall said. "So, for each amendment, it will list what those who support it think it will do and what those who oppose it think it will do."

With so many young voters, it is important for many organizations to emphasize being informed on all issues, not just the presidential candidates.

"It's our mission to get young people involved in all levels of policy, politics and elections," said Steve Fenberg, executive director of New Era Colorado, a non-partisan organization that utilizes nearly 100 student and student-aged volunteers to engage young people in the political process.

Through registration drives throughout campus, a recently launched Facebook application called "My Ballot" -- which let users display ballot choices to their peers -- and upcoming community events such as "Trick or Vote," which incorporates costumes and live music into a get-out-the-vote drive, New Era is among the many organizations capitalizing on the enthusiasm of young voters to be a presence on Election Day.

"The response has been awesome. People are really excited," said Tara Worley, a CU senior who does outreach for New Era, including spending nearly eight hours a week registering students to vote on campus. "I like to see people getting pumped up."
