Voting FAQs
1. What are the requirements to register?
You must meet certain requirements to register to vote in Utah. You must be:
A U.S. Citizen;
A resident of Utah for at least 30 days before the election; and
18 years old on or before the day of the election. 17 year olds may vote in a primary election if they will be 18 on the date of the general election.
If you are 16 or 17 years old, you can pre-register to vote. If you pre-register, you will automatically be registered to vote when you turn 18 years old.
You may register to vote at any time. Same day voter registration is possible in person at Early Voting or Vote Center locations.
Any registered voter may vote in general elections or Democratic primary elections. Only registered voters affiliated with the Republican party may vote in Republican primary elections. You must be registered as a Republican 30 days in advance of primaries to be eligible to participate. Unaffiliated voters may affiliate as Republicans at the polls in order to participate in GOP primaries.
