Several amendments to the Utah Constitution are included on the election ballot this year. Constitutional Amendment A proposes to make a technical wording change in the oath of office that elected and appointed officers are required to take. As explained on
vote.utah.gov
, the current Utah Constitution requires officers to swear to support, obey and defend the Constitution of the United States and “the Constitution of this State.” Constitution Amendment A simply changes the wording from “the Constitution of this State” to “the Constitution of the State of Utah.” It is accepted that this amendment is a correction and no arguments were listed against Constitutional Amendment A.
