A quarter million primary ballots will be hitting Salt Lake County mailboxes this week

If you’re one of the tens of thousands of Salt Lake County voters registered as a member of one of the major political parties, expect a primary ballot in your mail this week.

Salt Lake County Clerk Sherrie Swensen said 253,820 ballots were dropped off at the Salt Lake City main post office on Monday “and they’ll be hitting mailboxes today [Tuesday] and tomorrow [Wednesday], depending on where [in the county] they reside. But they will be receiving them this week.”

Last month, most voters unaffiliated with a party received a letter allowing them to register as a member and participate in the primary.
