In order to vote in the State of Utah, you must be registered.

• Be a citizen of the United States
• Reside in Utah for at least 30 days immediately before the next election

If you are not sure if you are currently registered to vote, please call the Millard County Clerk’s Office at (435)743-6223, or (435)864-2440, or visit vote.utah.gov.  If you are not registered to vote, please review the information below.

You may register to vote at any time. However, to be eligible to vote in an election, you MUST meet certain deadlines as explained in the next section.

There are several ways you can register and you can select any one method that works for you.

 Online Registration: You can register to vote online simply by going to the Online Voter Registration Website and completing the online form. In order to register online, you must have a current Utah Driver’s License or ID Card. If you are registering online, you must submit your registration at least 7 days prior to an election to be eligible to vote in that election.

 By-Mail Registration: You may use a by-mail voter registration form that can be found in our office or at vote.utah.gov. If you are registering to vote using a by-mail voter registration form, you must mail your completed registration form to the Clerk’s Office at least 30 days before the election to be eligible to vote in that election.

 In-person Registration: You may register in person at the Morgan County Building Clerk/Auditor's office at 48 West Young Street Mailing Address P.O. Box 886 Morgan, Utah 84050. The office is open Monday - Thursday from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm and is closed fridays, weekends and legal holidays. You must register in person at least 7 days prior to an election to be eligible to vote in that election.

To participate in early voting, you must register to vote at least 30 days (by mail), and/or 15 days (online or in person) before the election. [See more about early voting below].

You do not have to select a political party affiliation when you register to vote. If you do not wish to affiliate with a political party, just select “no party preference” or unaffiliated on your voter registration form.

Political parties in Utah may choose to close their primary elections (held in June of even-numbered years) and only allow those voters affiliated with their party to vote in their primary election. If you want to vote in the primary election of a party that has chosen to close their primary to voters who are not affiliated with their party, you would need to affiliate with that political party. Note: Political parties have allowed unaffiliated voters to affiliate at the polls and participate in the closed primary elections. (Party affiliation only pertains to partisan primary races held in even-numbered years. It does not apply to non-partisan primary races.)

Please Note: Morgan County  is a vote by mail county, therefore, you will receive your ballot by mail.  Prior to a Primary Election, you will receive information and a registration form giving you the option to change your affiliation, if you choose to do so.  If you do not update your affiliation at that time, you will receive the appropriate ballot for the affiliation we have on file for you.

Once you register to vote, you will be sent a Voter Information Card, which lists your precinct number and the various political jurisdictions in which you reside such as your congressional, state house and senate, county council, city council, as well as your state and local school board districts. You can check who your elected officials are by visiting vote.utah.gov.   This site will also provide you with your elected officials, a sample ballot for your precinct and help you locate  a vote center.  (Morgan County does not offer early voting, since we are a vote by mail county.)  Your Voter Information Card is not needed in order to vote; it is for informational purposes only.

You will need to update your registration if you change your name, your address and/or your political party affiliation. You will also have to re-register if you do not vote, or make any changes to your registration within 2 general elections.

Please Note: In order to guarantee that you receive a ballot each County Election, you must make sure we have the correct mailing address on file.  Since Morgan County is a vote by mail county, if any mail is returned to our office as undeliverable for any reason, you will be marked inactive and will not be sent a ballot, until we receive an updated mailing address.

If you are currently registered to vote in Morgan County, but you moved within the County, you would need to re-register with your new address. If you previously registered to vote in another county in the State of Utah or a different state, you will need to re-register to vote in Morgan County. Please refer to the information above regarding the various methods you can use to register to vote. If you move outside of Millard County, you will need to re-register to vote in the new county or state of residency.

If you are registered to vote in Morgan County, but moved within the County, you need to update your registration as soon as possible, to guarantee that you will receive a ballot.  Ballots are sent 30 days prior to an election.  If you have been previously registered to vote in the State of Utah, but did not update your address before Election Day, you may vote a provisional ballot at one of our vote centers on Election Day.  The County Clerk’s Office will verify if your provisional ballot will be counted for that election and then your voter registration will be updated.

Morgan County offers one voting center on Election Day: Morgan County Building

No, according to State law, you are required to vote in your new precinct when you move. Morgan County is divided into many political jurisdictions and elected officials represent citizens who live within a specific area. In order to vote for the elected officials who represent you, please update your street address, as well as your mailing address immediately, so that we can update your registration and make sure you receive the appropriate ballot.

Yes, Morgan County is a vote by mail county, therefore, you will receive your ballot in the mail approximately 30 days before the election.  You can vote your ballot anytime after receiving it and either mail it back to our office or drop it at one of the ballot drop off locations.

Yes, all voters must present identification in order to vote.  If you have voted previously in Morgan County you have already shown your ID.  If you have never voted in Millard County before, or are registering for the first time in Millard County, you will need to bring proof of identification to our office before a ballot can be mailed to you.   For a list of valid voter identification, please see Voter ID Requirements.

A voter may be issued and vote a provisional ballot on Election Day if the voter’s eligibility cannot be immediately determined by the election worker for any one of the following reasons: The voter is not in the official register; does not have identification with him/her when voting in person; has moved, but did not change his/her address with the Election Office prior to voting; OR the voter may be listed as already voted.

The eligibility of the voter who voted a provisional ballot will be determined by the County Clerk’s Office after Election Day.  If the voter was eligible to vote, the provisional ballot will be counted, if for whatever reason the provisional ballot was not counted the voter will be notified.

State Law requires county clerks to establish precincts that contain no more than 1,250 active registered voters. As voter population and political jurisdictions change, precincts must be adjusted to best serve voters. By law, precinct boundaries can only be adjusted in odd-numbered years.
