How long has utah had vote by mail

Utah has had vote-by-mail (VBM) elections since 2013. In 2013, the Utah Legislature passed a bill that allowed counties to conduct elections by mail, and several counties began implementing VBM systems.

However, it wasn't until 2018 that Utah became one of the first states to conduct a statewide election entirely by mail. In that year, Utah held a primary election and a general election, both of which were conducted entirely by mail.

Since then, Utah has continued to conduct elections by mail, with some exceptions. For example, in-person voting is still available for voters who prefer to cast their ballots in person, and some counties may still conduct elections with a combination of mail-in and in-person voting.

Here's a timeline of Utah's transition to vote-by-mail:

It's worth noting that Utah's vote-by-mail system is considered one of the most successful in the country, with high voter turnout and low rates of voter fraud.
