2 statewide constitutional amendments
The official 2026 Utah Voter Information Pamphlet contains Constitutional Amendments A and B. Local measures vary and are outside this statewide count.
- Constitutional Amendment AShall the Utah Constitution be amended to change how proposed constitutional amendments are published, requiring publication for 60 days immediately before the general election in a manner established by state law instead of in newspapers?
- Constitutional Amendment BShall the Utah Constitution be amended to require that citizen-proposed laws that increase taxes compared to existing law be approved by at least 60% of voters, instead of a simple majority?
7 statewide appellate judicial retention questions
The official 2026 filing page lists Supreme Court Justice Jill M. Pohlman and Court of Appeals Judges Amy Jo Oliver, David Ned Mortensen, Gregory Keith Orme, John David Luthy, Michele M. Christiansen Forster, and Ryan M. Harris. Utah law places Supreme Court and Court of Appeals retention questions before voters statewide. District Court and Juvenile Court retention questions are geographic and excluded.
