Anneliesa Peart conducted the canvass. A cursory review of the ballot tabulations was made. The results of the canvass are below:

Mrs. Peart stated there were 846 ballots cast during the June 25, 2024 Republican Primary Election. 851 ballots were processed, but 5 were rejected due to the lack of voter signatures and 1 was rejected for not resubmitting a proper precinct ballot. The 6 uncounted ballots were filed and will be sealed with the 2024 Republican Primary Election results.  

The number of ballots received by mail totaled 490, the number of military and overseas (UOCAVA) ballots totaled 3, the number of ballots received in-person totaled 17, the number of ballots received by drop box totaled 336. Zero ballots were received by mail, post-marked after June 24, 2024. There were 4 voted provisional ballots. After counting the 490 by-mail ballots, the 17 in-person ballots, the 3 UOCAVA ballots, and the 336 drobox ballots and the rejected 6 invalid ballots, the percentage of ballots counted was 100%, for a total number of ballots cast at 846.

The number of ballots counted on election night was 833 for an election night voter turnout percentage of 69.70%. The number of ballots counted post-election night was 13, constituting a total number of ballots cast at 846. The post-election voter turnout percentage was at 70.79%.

Mrs. Peart reviewed the audit procedures with the Board. Rich County was required to audit 97 ballots, which were randomly selected by the Lieutenant Governor’s Office. The 97 ballots selected were verified using ElectionWare Software, and all the votes were visually verified and passed. Additionally, 11 voter signatures were audited separately – constituting a 1% audit – and successfully passed.

Election Official, Anneliesa Peart, followed all the noticing and reporting required by Utah State Code.
