State lawmakers want to change Utah's vote by mail system

State lawmakers will discuss possible changes to Utah's vote by mail system during the 2025 legislative session, which begins on Jan. 21. Criticism of the mail-in ballot process has followed the release of a recent audit that found five potential cases of voter fraud in Utah in 2023. Supporters say the changes could increase election security, while opponents argue the new rules would diminish voter participation and disproportionately affect rural residents. - Show Notes - • Voter turnout was down in Indigenous communities in San Juan County this election https://www.kzmu.org/voter-turnout-was-down-in-indigenous-communities-in-san-juan-county-this-election/
