This map does not reflect political balance. It splits the Salt Lake City area. It is clearly gerrymandered in absurd splits. These districts are sprawling and snaking shapes that require travel through other districts. The area near where I live is split, and the districts do not follow natural boundaries. This does not give equal voice to rural and urban areas. This does not support the voice of the people in Prop 4. I object!!!

Terrible map. Splits SLC/county completely and dilutes salt lake interests with rural areas and vise versa. Please keep communities together. Keep urban and rural areas together as much as possible. Don't split counties or cities when possible. This map in not compact.

Biased map

I don't think this fairly represents the population of Utah and do not support this option.

I support the Escamilla/Owens map.
It best meets the goals of the Proposition 4, which citizens worked hard to pass because we want to move Utah beyond partisan gerrymandering.
The Escamilla/Owens map is compact, respects population diversity, and creates competitive districts that give me a meaningful vote.
Thank you for your work for Utah.

This map fails to keep Salt Lake County, the most populous county in our state with 34% of the entire state population as a single community of interest. This map goes against allowing a single group to choose its own representative. The power of the citizenry is diluted with any division of this county.

I don't love the splitting of SLC area, feels very odd to have so much of it with rural Utah. Instead, it would probably be better (If SLC must be split, which is likely), to have it with the northern communities like Ogden. District four seems odd at first, but that's mainly just population density from what I can tell.

SL County should not be split in half.

I like the premise of this map, however, Millcreek is still divided. And Wasatch County is divided. Not knowing how the NE section of Wasatch County functions as a community, this may or may not be acceptable to that population segment. I could support this map, if these two areas were addressed.

Box Elder county goes with Weber, it has basically zero connection to the rest of your district 2.
