Statewide ballot measures: what your vote means
For each measure: the official ballot title, what a YES vote and a NO vote would do, and what would change, in plain language from official sources. SaveYourState does not take positions on ballot measures.
2 statewide measures are on the ballot. 2 have a “Heads up” note because a YES vote repeals, undoes, or removes something. Official sources checked October 21, 2026.
Constitutional Amendment A · Legislatively referred constitutional amendment
Publishing proposed constitutional amendments
Heads up: voting YES on this measure removes the constitutional requirement to publish proposed amendments in newspapers.
A YES vote means:
Proposed constitutional amendments would be published for 60 days before the general election in a manner set by state law, which under H.B. 481 means the Utah Public Notice Website and the Lieutenant Governor’s website, instead of in newspapers.
A NO vote means:
The constitution would still require publishing proposed amendments in a newspaper in each county for two months before the election.
Constitutional Amendment B · Legislatively referred constitutional amendment
Vote needed for citizen initiatives that raise taxes
Heads up: voting YES on this measure removes the simple-majority vote for statewide initiatives that raise taxes and requires at least 60 percent.
A YES vote means:
Statewide citizen initiatives voted on after November 1, 2026, that create, expand, or raise a tax, or reduce a property tax decrease, would need at least 60% voter approval.
A NO vote means:
Such initiatives would continue to pass with a simple majority of voters.
Two constitutional amendments. Explanations follow the impartial analyses in the official Voter Information Pamphlet.
