What is a primary election?
A Primary Election is a process whereby political parties nominate candidates to represent their party in the November General Election. In contests where more than one candidate files for office to represent a party, a primary election is held to narrow the field to one candidate. Non-partisan local school board primary elections where candidates file without party affiliation can also be held in conjunction with the partisan primaries depending on the number of candidates who file for those offices. Voters may only participate in one party’s primary.

When will my ballot be mailed?
Ballots will be mailed out the week of June 6th to all active registered voters who have a primary election that pertains to their precinct and party affiliation. As voters update their addresses or register to vote, ballots will be mailed through June 17th.

Why didn't I receive a primary ballot?
Not every registered voter will receive a ballot for the primary election. Ballots will only be sent to voters who are affiliated with the Republican or Democratic parties (or who have requested a Democratic ballot) and who live in a district where a primary election is occurring. Ballots will also be sent to voters living in areas where non-partisan local school boards are conducting primary elections. If you have not received a ballot, it is likely that there is no primary in your area, or you are not affiliated with a party conducting a primary election this year.

I got the wrong ballot / Not the ballot I wanted.
Ballots are sent voters based on their home address and party affiliation. If you didn't receive the ballot you expected, please contact our office.

Why can't I vote in the Republican/Democratic primary?
To vote in a closed partisan primary election you must be affiliated with that political party, or you may request a ballot for an open party primary. In Utah the Republican Party requires voters to affiliate with their party to participate in their primary. The Democratic Party does not require voters to affiliate with their party to participate in their primary. If you didn't receive a Republican or Democratic ballot, you either don't belong to one of those parties or live in an area that does not have a partisan primary.

Can I affiliate with a party and vote in the primary?
If you are not currently affiliated with a political party, you may still affiliate with the Republican party before June 17th and receive a mail-in ballot for the Republican primary election. You can still affiliate after June 17th at an in-person vote center.

Or, if you reside in a district where a Democratic primary is being held, you may request to receive a Democratic primary ballot before June 17th without affiliating. You can still request a Democratic primary ballot after June 17th at an in-person vote center if you reside in a district where a Democratic primary is being held.

According to Utah law, voters who are already affiliated with a political party may not change their affiliation after March 31st to vote in another party's primary election.
