Everything you need to know about the 2024 GPUT Convention Participation, Party Nominations and Presidential Preference Nomination
Anyone,regardless of political party affiliation, can attend the GPUT Spring Meeting and Nominating Convention! To attend the convention, you can just show up, however we would like to have an idea of how many people will be attending through the event registration form.
The voting process will take place after the Meeting for registered Utah Green voters. (NOTE: You must be registered to vote by April 15 or sooner to allow for enough time for you to provide proof of registration. Please contact your county elections office to see how long it takes for your voter registration to show up in the system. Only proof of verified registration will be accepted, not the form to register.)
