DHS is moving swiftly to utilize EXISTING detention space with our state and county partners.” - DHS Voter Turnout - Thursday 5pm Salt Lake County 20% A new Utah law requires mail ballots to be received by 8 p.m. on Election Day.

Utahns deserve better.” Iran Memorandum of Understanding Both sides agreed to "the immediate and permanent end to military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon." Iran can begin exporting oil as soon as the MOU is signed.
