No New Parties Qualify in Utah This Year

No new parties have submitted 2,000 signatures to be ballot-qualified in Utah this year. The deadline was February 16. Parties already on the ballot are Democratic, Republican, Libertarian, Constitution, and Independent American.

Utah only requires statewide independent candidates to submit 1,000 signatures, with a later deadline. Candidates who use the independent procedure can choose a partisan label, such as “Green”, and that appears on the ballot adjacent to the candidate’s name.
