Very important information on voting in municipal elections this year!

Hey guys,

If you are interested in voting in municipal elections this year in Saratoga, there are some things I would like you to know:

Aaand if the video was too long to watch (I'm trying to keep them to 2-3 mins. max, FYI), Saratoga Springs, along with several other cities here in Utah County will be doing ballots by mail; you will not need to go to a polling location to vote; the ballots will come to YOU, if you are an active voter.

An active voter is one who has voted at least once in the past four years. If you haven't voted in the past 4 years, if you would like to vote, you can do it one of 3 ways:

• Register online to vote: Go to vote.utah.gov 

and if you'll notice on the top right-hand side of the page, there is a "Register to Vote" tab. Click on it, and register to vote;  you will need your driver's license (a current one, please, one that has your current address on it), and if you'll just fill out the information that they need from you, it should take a couple of minutes, then you're set! 

• Register by mail:

Under the same website, you can click on the "Utah Voter Registration Form" link, and it should take you to a page that you can print out, fill out your information by hand, and mail it to the Utah County Clerk's office. The address is:

Utah County Clerk Office

100 E. Center, Room 3100

Provo, UT 84606

and if you would like to contact them with further questions, their information is:

Clerk: Bryan Thompson

bryant@utahcounty.gov

Phone: 801-851-8128

Fax: 801-851-8122

• And lastly, you can register in person to vote. Just head on over to the County Clerk's office (address listed above) and register to vote! Simple, right? 

Additional information that may be important to know:

Primary Election Day for Municipal Elections: August 15, 2017, aaaaaand:

- deadline for registering online to vote is July 31, 2017

- clerk's office will begin mailing out ballots on July 25, 2017

- don't worry if you register online (or in person) to vote on July 31, 2017 when ballots are already being mailed out; you should still be able to get one before the Primary Election Day, which is August 15, 2017.

- last day to register to vote by mail is July 17, 2017

If you have any questions for me, please don't hesitate to let me know!

xoxo,

Leah
