Ogden, UTAH – According to the state officials, the executive and legislative branches have developed a timeline to fill the vacancy.
State officials also said that in order to minimize the amount of time that the House seat will be vacant and to accommodate this year’s municipal elections, primary elections throughout the state will be held on Sept. 5, 2023, and the general election on Nov. 21, 2023.
Gov. Cox has issued two proclamations related to the special elections. The first calls a special election and establishes timelines for the election.
The second calls a special session of the Legislature to appropriate money for the elections, change the municipal election dates and address other election-related matters.
The special session will be held on Wednesday, June 14, 2023 at 4 p.m.
