Terrible Map. Cutting up Salt Lake County and diluting their vote with rural western Utah makes no sense. Keep communities together.

still looks gerrymandered. I don't love this map. It cuts through the county of SLC and separates neighborhoods and communities.

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

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.

Why is someone who lives in TX posting UT maps?

This is still gerrymandering when Salt Lake City and St George are in the same district. It makes much more sense for Salt Lake to be combined with Park City or West Valley City, Provo, Ogden, or even Logan than St George! This is the same problem that caused the problems to begin with.

Is this a joke? Yet ANOTHER gerrymandered map that purposefully dilutes the SLC/ SL County voter base into a rural area. The ONLY map that achieves any level of fairness per Prop 4 is the Escamilla - Owens maps. All of the these other maps are a complete waste of everyones time.

Note: This comment contains no partisan info pertaining to Utah and thus can be shared with the full committee. In addition to the aforementioned map the author of this map submitted to Texas earlier this year, the author of this map also submitted a map to Ohio. Out of 9 maps submitted by the public in the first week of September (7 of which were found to be biased in favor of Republicans), the author of this map's submission had the one biased most in favor of Republicans, with an efficiency gap of 22.5%.

This map is gerrymandering. It splits too many growing cities in half, and groups urban Utah County with rural communities, which seems more political than representing actual needs.

Another map that combines Millcreek and St. George. That makes no sense. There's lots of better options than this.

Kane Wayne and Garfield should at minimum be kept with Eastern Utah area if Southern Utah must be split

Nonsensical split of Murray City

Splitting Magna and WVC is separating a community of interest

unnecessary split of Weber County

bad split of fort union area

Gerymander

I think this fails the compactness criteria. It's very strange that suburban and rural District 1 is more compact than District 2, which includes the region of Utah with the highest population density.

This map is a gerrymander, combining southern Utah with the metropolitan Salt Lake County splitting it so none of the districts are competitive is a gerrymander, Do Better!

St. George with Salt Lake City is a gerrymander. It was in 2012, it was in 2022, and it still is in 2025. This map looks clean but the end result is strongly Republican favored. It has a lot in common with other Republican gerrymanders enacted this year in that respect, cleaning up the look of the map while being no less gerrymandered than what came before. This map very clearly is drawn with intent to favor the Republican party and deny the residents of the Salt Lake area a voice.

Note: This comment contains no partisan info pertaining to Utah and thus can be shared with the full committee. The author of this map submitted a map to the Texas legislature during their mid-decade redistricting earlier this year, a map that was characterized by media outlets at the time as a map that would have helped Republicans substantially compared to Texas' current map at the time.

This map is better than any of the 5 the legislature has proposed but once again Salt Lake City is diluted with rural western and southern Utah. Not fair to either group.
