Our Emphasis on Voting

Voting is required for any healthy democracy.  To help our community be vibrant and strong, one of our central tenets is to help local residents and students register to vote and become educated on the issues affecting them.  As part of that effort, we create voter guides for each election affecting Provo residents.  This includes municipal and county elections as well as state and national legislative elections.  Written and video recorded policy statements furnished by the candidates will be provided for each primary and general election to give you a fair and balanced review of your potential public officials.
