Today’s the day! All registered voters will have their ballots mailed out today, July 23rd. In the next couple of days you should see your ballots in the mail – so keep an eye out. Voters then can make their choices and mail them back. No standing in line. No waiting. No pressure. Ballots must be postmarked on or before Monday, August 12, 2019 (the day prior to the primary election). A ballot drop box will also be available outside of the Provo Library for anyone wishing to hand deliver their completed mail-in ballot in the signed and sealed envelope.
Those who are uncertain about whether their registration status is current can check online at vote.utah.gov. If you have moved, you need to ensure your address is up to date. If you are not registered, you can get a registration form from the Utah County Clerk’s Office at 100 E Center Street or register online at vote.utah.gov by August 6th. Call 801-852-6524 with questions.
On Election Day, a voter service center will be set up at the Provo Recreation Center (320 W. 500 North) from 7 a.m. through 8 p.m. Those who do not receive a ballot in the mail or who lose it can visit the service center and cast a provisional ballot. (Bring a current ID or two items bearing their current address.) A drop box will also be available at the voter service center for anyone wishing to hand deliver their completed mail-in ballot in the signed and sealed envelope.
