Why We’re the First Call on Voting System & Election Policy in Utah
At Morgan May Public Affairs, we’re the first call groups make when the issue is voting systems or election integrity.
We’ve earned that trust by being the only Utah firm where both founding partners served in the state elections office. We’ve overseen election administration, helped draft policy updates, and supported local election leaders in building public confidence. Since starting our firm, national groups, lawmakers, and advocacy coalitions have turned to us for guidance on some of Utah’s most sensitive and impactful voting‑policy issues.
Whether it means adapting policy to new technology, explaining procedural reform, or managing legislative timing, we help translate complex rules into strategies that resonate in Utah.
Three Reasons We’re the Go‑To for Voting Policy
🔹 Credibility rooted in experience. We’ve knocked doors, sat inside county clerks’ offices, and shaped policy from the ground up. That gives us trust with administrators, lawmakers, and media alike.
🔹 Messaging that aligns with civics. We don’t push slogans. We provide clear explanations of what voting changes mean — and why they matter. That’s how you build support grounded in understanding, not emotion.
🔹 Nonpartisan execution. Voting policy isn’t about ideology—it’s about process and trust. Our work crosses party lines and spans administrative, legislative, and media channels to shape outcomes responsibly.
A Policy Mindset That Applies Everywhere
That elections-policy discipline doesn’t stay in elections alone. It informs how we approach any high-stakes challenge:
Coalition campaigns & funding asks, where timing and stakeholder sequencing mimic vote calendars.
Crisis-response engagement, where careful timing and clear messaging are critical.
Regulatory or legislative change, where early groundwork reduces opposition and improves outcomes.
We don’t just support voting policy. We apply its lessons to every major campaign—bringing structure, clarity, and credibility to everything we do.
