Alpine, Highland, Cedar Hills and Lehi voters face more than 15 races and two constitutional amendments on their Nov. 3 ballots.

The official sample ballot certified by the Utah County Clerk shows federal, state, county and judicial contests. Specific races vary by address, so voters should review the ballot they receive in the mail.

Mail ballots began going out Oct. 13. In-person early voting starts Tuesday, Oct. 20. The registration deadline to receive a mail ballot is Oct. 23 at 5 p.m., and all ballots must arrive by 8 p.m. on Election Day, the Salt Lake Tribune reported.

Here is what to expect.

U.S. House District 4

First-term Rep. Mike Kennedy, a Republican doctor and lawyer, faces Democrat Jonny Larsen, a Marine Corps combat veteran twice deployed to Iraq. Libertarian Taylor Wright, an elementary school teacher, and unaffiliated candidate Steven Burt, an attorney, are also running. The Cook Political Report rates the district "Solid R," the Salt Lake Tribune reported.

State Senate District 21

Sen. Brady Brammer, R-Highland, is the incumbent. He previously served six years in the Utah House before moving to the Senate to fill former Sen. Mike Kennedy's seat, the American Fork Citizen reported. The district covers Lehi, American Fork and surrounding communities. Brammer faces Democrat Kandee Myers and Forward Party candidate Wayne Woodfield.

"A lot of people run from their records. I embrace my record," Brammer told the American Fork Citizen in March.

State House races

Voters will see one State House race depending on their address. District 52 (Lehi area): Cory Maloy (REP) vs. Nicole Melling (DEM). District 53: Kay J. Christofferson (REP) vs. John Boyd (FWD) and Kevin R. Slater (DEM). District 54: Kristen S. Chevrier (REP) vs. Kristina Robinson (DEM). District 55: Jon Hawkins (REP) vs. Travis Hysell (DEM).

County races

Both Utah County Commission seats are open. Former Provo Mayor Michelle Kaufusi (REP) faces Jeanne Marie Bowen (DEM) and Jacob D. Oaks (IAP) for Seat A. Seat B features David M. Spencer (REP), J. Allen (DEM) and David Hinckley (FWD).

County Attorney Jeff Gray (REP) and County Sheriff Mike Smith (REP) are each the only candidates in their races. The County Auditor contest pits Gina Tanner (REP) against Hans V. Andersen (IAP). For County Clerk, Corey K. Astill (REP), who unseated incumbent Aaron Davidson in the June 23 Republican primary, faces Russ J. Rampton (FWD).

State School Board District 11 is also on the ballot: Tracy J. Nuttall (REP) vs. Lacey Peterson (DEM).

Judicial retention

Voters will decide whether to retain 13 judges. The list includes Utah Supreme Court Justice Jill M. Pohlman, six Court of Appeals judges, four Fourth District Court judges, one juvenile court judge and one justice court judge. Pohlman was part of the Utah Supreme Court ruling that blocked the Legislature from repealing a citizen-passed anti-gerrymandering initiative, the Salt Lake Tribune reported. Republican officials have urged voters to remove her. Voters can review the Judicial Performance Evaluation Commission's recommendations at judges.utah.gov.

Constitutional amendments

Amendment A would replace the longstanding requirement that proposed constitutional amendments be published in newspapers with publication on state government websites for 60 days before an election.

Amendment B would require citizen-initiated ballot measures that raise taxes to pass with at least 60% of the vote instead of a simple majority. The Legislature passed the measure in 2025 on party-line Republican votes (Senate 21-8, House 55-17), KSL reported. Had the rule been in place in 2018, both the Medicaid expansion and medical marijuana initiatives would have failed.

Elizabeth Rasmussen, executive director of Better Boundaries, told KSL on Oct. 1 that the amendment is "making it harder for citizens to hold government accountable …"
