This is pretty good, I like the encouragement to register and vote.
I left a comment on one paragraph about adding another explaining what precincts are. I think right now it just kind of assumes the reader knows what the datasets are and skips right to explaining how they're created and why their important. I'm guessing the average reader may not know how each county is broken down into precincts and how those define what shows up on their ballot.
Maybe it would be helpful to have a screenshot of those boundaries in Pro, maybe with a previous vintage underneath so the reader can see an example of how they change? Maybe on an annexation border? @DenisePeterson, is this something you could provide?

With the cool winds blowing in and the birds flying south, fall is officially upon us. That means a few things: warm sweaters, yellow aspen leaves, and everyone's favorite method of getting a free sticker: voting! Election Day will be on Tuesday, November 5th, 2024. If you aren't yet registered, you can do so now on [vote.utah.gov](http://vote.utah.gov). Whether you vote by mail or in person, where you vote and who's on your ballot is determined by geospatial data maintained by UGRC and local government authorities. UGRC might not be able to make the beautiful autumn hues of red, orange, and yellow stay longer than nature dictates, but we are charged with safekeeping the data that makes elections in Utah possible. |
