Three members of the Utah Constitution Party were elected to city office on November 3, 2009. They are Kenneth O. Lutes, elected Mayor of Elk Ridge; Matt Kimmel to the Syracuse City Council; and Thomas Butler to the Highland City Council. These were non-partisan elections, but newspapers generally would report the party affiliation of the various candidates.
Also, the party’s vice-chair, David Perry, polled 42% for Mayor in Sandy. Sandy is the sixth-largest city in Utah. Perry was the only opponent of the incumbent Mayor.
Good for the CP! They should start keeping records like the LP does as to how many folks they have in elected and appointed positions.

They soon will. And the national Party needs to start paying MORE attention to Utah and the Rocky Mountain West- think about it.
