It’s Official: Campaign Season Has Begun

Today is the first day of a 10 day window that candidates can file for office in Utah. All 75 House Seats and 16 of the 29 Senator seats area up for grabs.

Today’s Deseret News has an article on what Senators seats are open.

The Green Party will be running candidates this year and will announce them after its 2006 nominating convention being held this week.

A special nominating convention was held in the fall for the U.S. Senate race (Orrin Hatch’s seat). Elected for candidacy was Julian Hatch.

These offices are up for election this year, along with their term of office and filing fee. For more information on requirements, visit the State Elections Office Website and for Salt Lake County offices, visit the Salt Lake County Elections Website.
