The University of Denver debuted the alternative voting location on Monday. The DU campus is the first location where the "Haul 'N The Votes" unit has stopped.

"the 18-to-24 demographic is one of our lowest turnout demographics, so you want to try to make it easier for students to participate, but also because of a change in law where we're not using stand alone police stations anymore. this also helps us serve the I-25 University corridor by having people come onto the University of Denver campus," said Alton Dillard with Denver Elections.

The mobile voting center is also a place where people can drop off their completed ballot. The center has sanitized equipment, disposable face masks and practices safe social distancing.
