Thank you UIRC for producing well crafted non-partisan maps just like the *majority* of Utah voters wanted.

Why do the Salt Lake neighborhoods look so strangely shaped, sort of like a bunch of salamanders? (Rhetorical question.)

District 66 is a mess! How could anyone properly and represent this area. Besides the gerrymandered mix of a little urban and a lot rural, there is too much geographic area, no connecting roads. The representative couldn't possibly effectively represent their constituents!

This border looks like it was cut with the precision of political agenda jiggered-up saw. Why is this little oxbow being singled out of my west side neighborhood? We all shop at the same Smiths, our kids all go to the same schools, we all enjoy the same rec center, parks, "nextdoor neighbor" online bulletin board. Precise and deliberate again. In 2000 we lost Millie Peterson, In 2010 we lost Sen. Goodfellow and now we are losing Mike Winder. Absolutely appalling and dripping with Republican self righteous BS!

Whoa there! This map makes a mess of My West Valley neighborhood. I was happily represented by Winder in district 30....but now district 30 has been replaced by 24 on my side of the street and 25 at my friends house across the street on 60th west. First they came for Millie Peterson in 2000, then Sen Goodfellow in 2010 and now Mike WInder in 2020. I've lived in the same house for nearly 30 yrs and the good-ol gerrymandering boys just keep blowing us up! Ridiculous!

This map has a variety of odd geographic breaks when closely reviewed. Most of Midvale representation area also crosses all 4 corners of the I-15/215 interchange, while downtown Midvale is being carved out to align across the Jordan River. Some folks near Coalville are aligned with Vernal area, there are no direct connecting roads or other reason for this. Wrap around from Duchesne clear to four corners area is all rural, but several areas require driving hundreds of miles through neighboring districts to connect on roads throughout the area. This would be logistically very difficult for representatives to meet with the population they represent.

Tooele County and Box Elder should not be together. They are not connected by any major road making representation a challenge.
