In July, the Forward Party in Utah and the United Utah Party, both of which were qualified parties, merged with each other, with the new name to be “Forward Party”. This is the first time two ballot-qualified parties in any state have merged since 1944, when the Minnesota Farmer-Labor Party and the Minnesota Democratic Party merged.
Minnesota has never had registration by party, but Utah, by contrast, does have registration by party. The Utah elections office decided to automatically switch all the United Utah members to Foward Party members. No notification to each voter was made. The state assumed the party itself would inform its members of the change.
State registration numbers for active voters as of August 11 show 2,193 Forward Party members, and zero United Utah members. By contrast, before the merger, there had been 252 Forward members and 2,217 United Utah members.

PR – TV/TM- ALL VOTES COUNT
Lock em up + seats vacated!
Plus deportation if they are not Americans.
Good point. That should be extended to anyone who’s only here due to any combination of past amnesty, illegal immigration/invasion, the insane 1965 immigration law, crazy misinterpretation of birthright citizenship in recent decades, intermarriage, chain migration, etc. Get em all out!
You mean the SOS didn’t dissolve both parties before the merger happened and zeroed out the membership count of the new party?
No, I never said anything like that.
