Vote for Change – Your One Stop Shop
By Saintless. Filed in 2008 election, Utah |
I just caught on to Obama’s new “Vote for Change” section of the web site. When you get there, it tells you that you can Register to Vote, Register to Vote Absentee, or Check your Polling Location. Out of curiousity, I entered my name, and on the next page, I entered my email address. On the third page, I indicated that I wasn’t sure if I was registered to vote, so I was then asked my address, and my location was confirmed.
This is much like the Salt Lake County Clerk’s web site, but a little easier to use, and it covers more than this county.
After confirming that the information was correct, I was presented with this:
You are ready to vote in Utah!

7:00 am to 8:00 pm
What to Bring With You When You Go.
The first time you vote, you must provide a valid photo ID that include your name, photograph, current address or present two different forms of ID that show current name and home address. Identification is required if you are a first time voter who registers by mail and does not provide a copy of identification with your application.
Voters with Disabilities
If you are physically unable to enter the polling place, an election official may deliver the ballot to you at the entrance or curb of the polling place. If you are physically unable to mark your ballot, or cannot read the ballot, you are eligible for assistance. You may choose anyone as an assistant except your employer or an officer of your union, or an agent of either. The assistant must take an oath of assistance administered by an election official. The assistant may read the ballot to you and mark your ballot. If you do not choose your own assistant, two election officials (of different political parties in the General Election) may assist you. Poll watchers and inspectors can observe the assistance by election officials.
