Additional Information

On January 10, 2018 the City Council passed a Resolution approving Washington City to be a “Vote by Mail” city. Voting by mail is a huge step for our City, a significant amount of time has gone into researching this option. Washington City has seen a large decrease in voter turnout over the years. The best voter turnout was in 2013 at 28.44%, which is overall a very small amount of our population. Here are some of the reasons vote by mail will be more convenient for our voters.

Ballots will be sent to your home, relieving the stress of getting to a polling/voting location and standing in line.
Ballots are sent approx 30 days before the election, giving voters more time to do their research on the candidates.
Increase in voter turnout.

Please take advantage of this gift our City Council has provided for our citizens. I encourage citizens over the age of 18 years to get out and vote. Here are some questions you may have about voter registration:

Have you registered to vote recently and want to make sure all your information is correct?
Have you moved recently or changed your name?
Want to change your party affiliation?
Has it been awhile since you voted?
Not sure whether or not you are registered?

Please feel free to contact the Washington City Recorder’s Office at (435) 656-6308 for information concerning our local Municipal Election, or your Voter Registration. You can also visit this website for Additional voter information at https://vote.utah.gov
