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 Recorders 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 informationat https://vote.utah.gov
