There are a lot of great tools and guides that can help you figure out who and what is on your ballot this year. Check out http://www.vote411.org/ or http://votesmart.org/voteeasy/# or http://thisismyballot.org/ to see the candidates and issues on the ballot in your area.

Your Secretary of State or local elections board may have sample ballots as well.

Election Day is Tuesday, November 2nd. The polls will be open from 7am to 8pm.

You can check your voter registration status here: http://elections.utah.gov/Voterregistrationinformation.html.

If you are still having problems or have questions, you should contact your local board of elections immediately so they can determine if you are on the rolls.

Hope that helps.

Yes, you do. Here's the law:

Any person who is registered to vote may vote before the election date as permitted by Utah Code 20A-3-601. In order to be eligible to participate in early voting, voters must be registered to vote at least 30 days prior to the election, or October 4, 2010.

In order to vote during early voting, voters must present valid voter identification. This is either a form of identification that bears the name and photograph of the voter or two forms of identification that bear the name of the voter and provide evidence of voter’s residence. The early voting period will begin on October 19 and will continue through October 29. The polls will be open for a minimum of four hours during each early voting day and will close at 5 p.m. on October 29.

To find your early voting locations, go to http://elections.utah.gov/.

You have the legal right to register and vote at any address that you will have been living in for a state-specific amount of time prior to the election. In every state, if you moved into on-or off-campus housing at the start of the fall semester, you will have been living there for long enough to vote.

A person may register to vote using any address he or she considers to be his or her legal residence. Residence requires both domicile and a place of abode. A P.O. Box is sufficient as a mailing address, but insufficient to establish residency. College students should list the street address of their dorm and specify the room, floor, or apartment they occupy.

It is against the law to use the voter roles to determine jury duty.

Yes. Each part of the state has its own unique candidates and measures on the ballot.

When you vote at your assigned polling place you will have the opportunity to vote on the candidates and issues that most directly affect you and your neighbors. When you send in your new voter registration form indicate that you are changing your address. You will get a voter registration card in the mail within a month that will tell you where your precinct’s polling place is located. You do not have to “unregister” your previous registration.

Absolutely. Go here for details on getting and submitting an absentee ballot:

Advanced planning is encouraged because in some states the deadline for applying for an absentee ballot is a few weeks prior to Election Day. As long as the absentee ballot itself is postmarked by Election Day it legally has to be counted.
