Good morning, Tribune readers.

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, results from Utah's primary election are coming in slowly this year. Updated ballot counts will continue almost daily, with the next one scheduled for 3 p.m. today. Be sure to check our site for the latest numbers.

Speaking of elections, what do you want to know about Utah's primary? Today at noon on 'Trib Talk," reporters Robert Gehrke, Bethany Rodgers and Taylor Stevens will discuss the latest on this week's results, voter turnout and more. Watch live on our Facebook page, and use #TribTalk on Twitter to join the conversation.

It's going to be sunny today in Salt Lake County, with a high of 92 degrees.
