Voter Registration Search Utah County has created a nice clean application that allows users to check their voter registration status.  As a precinct chair, I was surprised how many people were unaware of their registration status.  By entering your name, you can access all your voter information, your voting district information, polling location, as well as a map of the district and the polling location.  Now, a precinct chair could take a laptop with wireless access to precinct meetings and immediately tell voters what their status is.  Utah also has a very nice online voter registration system.  Using the same principle, parties could have their voters register during the precinct meetings rather than handing out the forms and trying to make sure they get back to the county. The county has an excellent GIS section which publishes a variety of resources, including the 2002 Utah County Atlas and their Real Time Parcel Viewer. 10:33:23 AM
