Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold Announces "I Voted" Digital Sticker Design Competition Open to All Colorado High School Students
Denver, March 16, 2026 - The Colorado Secretary of State's Office announced a new "I Voted" digital sticker competition today open to all Colorado high school students.

"The digital 'I Voted' sticker is an opportunity for high school students across Colorado to engage with our democracy and show off their artistic skills," said Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold. "I'm excited to see the designs Colorado high schoolers will come up with to encourage voter participation amongst voters!"

The winning sticker design will be sent to voters enrolled in BallotTrax once they have voted in the upcoming General Election. It will also be featured on the Secretary of State's website, media channels, press releases, in media coverage, and as part of digital effort to encourage people to vote across the state.

Staff from the Colorado Secretary of State's office will present the award during an assembly at the artist's school.

Sticker with "I voted" text. The O in voted is a Columbine flower, and the words sit over a canyon with cliffs on either side of a desert vista with native plants and flowers.
