[NFB-Utah] Voting Information for June 30 Primary Election

[nfbutah at gmail.com]

Fellow Federationists and Friends of the NFB of Utah!

 

The June 30 primary election will be different this year. Due to the Coronavirus, there will not be open polling locations to the public. I have been working with Justin Lee, head of Elections for the Lt. Governor, and the below message comes directly from him. If you have any questions, please let me know!

 

Dear Voter,

 

To help prevent the spread of the coronavirus, the June 30, 2020 Primary Election will be conducted by mail, and regular polling locations will not be available in most counties in the state.

 

If you cannot read or mark a ballot that is mailed to you, please contact your county clerk for assistance. Your county clerk will be able to provide you with a touchscreen voting machine that allows you to listen to the ballot or view the ballot with larger print or higher color contrast.  Your county clerk may offer additional options to cast your ballot, such as voting by email or delivering a voting machine to your house.  You can find your county clerk's contact information by clicking on this link <https://voteinfo.utah.gov/county-clerk-contact-information/> .

 

If you are a resident of San Juan County, your county is offering early and Election Day polling locations.  The polling locations will have touchscreen voting machines available.
