Utah Bill for a Presidential Primary Advances

On February 21, the Utah House passed HB 204, which sets up presidential primaries in Utah. On February 28, the bill passed the Senate Government Operations Committee. The bill does not include details of how the primary would be run, how candidates would get on the ballot, or even the date. Presumably if HB 204 is signed into law, bills in the near future would include details.

The bill does not exclude any qualified parties. In some states, only large qualified parties are provided with presidential primaries.
