Litigation over congressional redistricting maps that were approved in 2021 and used in the 2022 election is ongoing. The new districts changed the state’s legislative and U.S. congressional district boundaries and may affect which candidates appear on your ballot. Check back for updates.
Your county clerk must receive your registration form by 5 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 25, to register to vote in the November election. If you miss the deadline, you can register during early voting or on the day of the election. Scroll down for more information about same-day registration.
Utah offers same-day voter registration during early voting and on Election Day (Tuesday, Nov. 5) but you’ll need to vote with a provisional ballot and show two forms of ID. If you have questions, contact your county clerk’s office or the lieutenant governor’s office at elections@utah.gov or 801-538-1041.
Visit Utah’s voter registration page to check your registration status
If you’re an active registered voter, you’ll automatically receive a ballot in the mail. You can confirm your registration status at vote.utah.gov.
County clerks will mail ballots by Tuesday, Oct. 15. Contact your clerk’s office if you haven’t received your ballot shortly after that date.
If you haven’t voted in the past two general elections or are otherwise deemed inactive, you'll need to update your voter registration online or contact your county clerk’s office. Find more information about voting by mail at Vote.Utah.gov.
Return your ballot by mail or in person.
Track your ballot through vote.utah.gov. Or sign up at BallotTrax to get status notifications. You can also call 801-538-1041 or email elections@utah.gov for help.
Military and overseas voters follow different procedures and deadlines.
Find more information about voting by mail at vote.utah.gov.
Each county is required to hold at least four days of early voting, and some counties offer more. The early voting window begins Tuesday, Oct. 22 and ends Friday, Nov. 1. Contact your county clerk’s office for details.
Polling place information for the primary will be listed on your county clerk’s website and at vote.utah.gov. Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. If you are in line by 8 p.m., you’ll be allowed to vote.
If you’re registered to vote, you will only need to provide ID when voting in person. You must provide one primary form of valid ID that includes your name and photograph or two forms of ID that, when combined, prove your name and current address, such as a recent utility bill and a bank statement. Find a full list of acceptable forms of ID at Vote.Utah.gov.
If you have a disability, you may vote by mail or request an email or fax ballot through your county clerk’s office.
If you prefer to vote in person, polling locations have accessible voting machines. Inform a poll worker when you arrive if you’d like to use one.
If you need help casting your ballot, you can ask a poll worker or choose someone else to assist you, as long as that person is not your employer, a trade union representative or a candidate.
Learn more about accessible voting at Utah.gov.
Go to vote.utah.gov to see a list of candidates on your ballot, and their profiles, when available.
