Castle Pines

On your Castle Pines ballot

November 3, 2026 general election. Ballots are mailed starting October 2.

Two city charter measures on annexation, and no council race. Castle Pines is home rule and its charter puts regular city elections in November of odd-numbered years, so 2026 is an off year for council. Plus everything countywide.
