The Colorado Secretary of State's office says more than 3,145,626 people returned their ballots before 7 p.m. on Tuesday. That's about 80% of all registered eligible voters in the state. In the 2016 general election 2,855,257 votes were counted.
Colorado has never seen a turnout like that in an election before, and there are still ballots left to be counted in a few counties so the number will go up.
