News from UTAH PTA Legislative VP

Hello! Here's the latest info. from Utah PTA legislative information. We'll be posting more information as it becomes available.

"A PTA member sent me some helpful information that I wanted to pass on to you if you are needing information about candidates for elected office. I hope that this will be helpful to you. It will be a few months until you will find much there. This is a great site, nonetheless.

A new website has been created by the State Elections Office to provide information
to voters. To access this website go to elections.utah.gov, then
click on Voter Information Website listed on the bottom left-hand
side of the screen. Once there, enter the required information and your
voter information will appear. Click on sample ballot to bring up the names of candidates on your ballot.

You can click on the candidate names in blue type to view their statement of
qualifications. Candidate names appearing in black type did not submit
a statement. A candidate was not required to submit a statement.
Statements for candidates in a district not requiring a primary will not
show until the general election ballot is posted.
