This map is terrible! Different regions have different needs, and combining northern and southern, urban and rural does not give different populations good representation!
Margaret Kluthe
This map splits SL county, our largest urban county, into too many parts and is clearly gerrymandered to dilute urban representation!
Alec Quick
Worst map by far. It does not make sense to split up Salt Lake City into four parts. Moreover, it looks as if it splits up individual cities.
Roberta Anne
This map is not a good idea, since different regions have different needs, and combining northern and southern, urban and rural does not seem like a good idea.
Marilyn L Larriva
Do not use this map. This map splits SLC and does not follow the standards of Proposition 4. Use the Escamilla-Owens-Map. This E-O map gives a Rep for the South, North and two Reps to cover the population centers.
Jaqueline Pack
This map perpetuates gerrymandering, which is what the legislature wants, but not what the voters want. Municipalities with common interests are divided, while combining rural areas with urban areas to dilute SL city and county voters. This is not a good map for Utah.
Jesse Hewitt
This doesn't seem to meet the needs of any urban centers of Utah, it looks like it would disproportionately represent rural Utah. It also looks like it wouldn't be very competitive.
Amy Hale
This map perpetuates gerrymandering, cutting municipalities with common interests up while combining disparate areas of Utah together into a district. This is a terrible option for Utah
Stephen Byrd
Horrible way to redistrict. Give the people of salt lake county a voice
Shelby Hansen
I do not share the same needs as voters in southern utah, This map both poorly represents Rural and Urban voters and their needs my job is on the east side of Wasatch Valley. What affects me as a resident in West Valley is not relevant to voter needs in Beaver Utah
Lynda A Geddes
The community and needs of Salt Lake City and Salt Lake County are split up again. Continues to be too partisan. Lets "disagree better" and come up with a FAIR map for SLC and SL County!
Ryan Barlow
Of all the proposed maps, this is probably the worst. It divides West Jordan into two different districts. It divides South Jordan into two districts. It makes absolutely no sense for Salt Lake City to be in the same district as Moab and Blanding. It makes no sense for Alpine and Highland to be in the same district as St. George. It makes no sense for West Valley City to be in the same district as Beaver.
Abram Berry
I think people in Eagle Mountain have more in common with voters in Spanish Fork than they do with people in St. George. Splitting the districts like this is nonsense
Tammy Brice
This completely groups voters with vastly different needs and cultures together with the seeming purpose of not allowing SLC county to be its own district. This is exactly what I wish the government would not do.
Kristine Gates
This map continues the partisan process Utah legislators have come to love. This does nothing to keep communities together and will not represent the voices of Utah in all areas. Blatant gerrymandering. This map does not meet prop 4.
Denee D. Tyler
Blatant gerrymandering. Listen to your constituents. Listen to the judge. Do better.
Malcolm Wilson
This map perpetuates the gerrymandering of the 2010 and 2020 redistricting maps. It is contrary to the goals of Proposition 4 and does not allow fair representation of the residents in the state who live in Salt Lake County, the largest county in the state.
Martin Shupe
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.
Joey DeFilippis
THIS IS NOT ONE OF THE MAPS BEING CONSIDERED BY THE LEGISLATURE. While I appreciate the thoughtful feedback, there are many of you who seem to think this map is an official one and it is not. I personally created this map in about an hour to see how difficult it would be to divide the population into districts. It was a fun and educational exercise and I think everyone should try drawing their own map!
John Reed
This map divides salt lake and its suburbs in an illogical manner, dividing cities such as west Jordan in an unreasonable way, and more importantly it groups together voter of entirely different needs by placing rural central Utah with large portions of Salt Lake City and its suburbs this creates a constituency which it is impossible to represent effectively because they will have needs at odds with each other. This does nothing to keep communities together and will lead to misrepresentation of large portions of the population. This map is in now way reasonable.
Hunter Keene
This map clearly violates all statutes of Prop 4. It is gerrymandered with severe and unnecessary splitting of Salt Lake City. It creates areas that are not connected by road or communities of interest, subdivides urban areas to incorporate massive swaths of rural areas - thus splitting interest - and faces prominent shoestringing. With over 30% of Utah voters voting for non-republican parties, any map in which all 4 districts would be republican is maximizing the quantity of un-represented citizens of the state.
JaNae Kotter
How does this provide better representation for people in Lehi? We deserve a representative better focused on urban growth, challenges, etc. It does not make sense to have Lehi tied to Representation for specific challenges faced by more rural communities.
Ann Davis
This is more of the same old same old. Shame on our legislature. This is just a power grab. Y'all are maintaining an echo chamber. I'm a registered Republican. What are you so afraid of? Let's have some Democrats in the miz!
Lauren Miller
This map is gerrymandered and does not represent Utah voting districts. This map splits Salt Lake County into 4 different districts. This map is partisan and doesn't represent Utah voters. There are 4 steps to create fair maps, and this map includes 0 of the 4 steps. Step 1: Districts should have a regular shape, avoiding "shoestring" or "earmuff" formations designed to capture or exclude specific voters. Step 2: All parts of a district must be geographically connected. Step 3: Where possible, districts should respect pre-existing municipal, county, or other political boundaries. Step 4: Districts should be drawn to keep communities with shared interests together.
Jake Dustin
This map has the same problem as our current map. Partisan gerrymandering.
Connor Duffy
This map is inconsistent with the intent of Prop 4. It divides the largest population center and merges it with rural areas, while also fragmenting counties and cities, which undermines fair representation.
Travis Schenck
This map has the same problem of putting densely packed urban centers with open areas that have entirely different concerns. Also, this line through Utah County is very odd. It isolates the rural part of the county while attaching the more developed part of the county to rural areas further south with radically different economic concerns. This does not positively represent rural interests in the state, where voters' livelihoods are put at risk to urban interests. People should be grouped by the types of concerns they have, rather than trying to create an urban-rural balance.
Michael Gormley
My neighbor across the street is less than 900 feet away, but will be voting in a different district? ridiculous and doesn't even consider the provisions of Prop 4.
Stephen Lee Walston
Very poor alignment to split Salt Lake County in this manner.
Kalyan Karki
Why does Salt Lake County need to be divided into two districts? What are the differences between the communities of Draper and Bluffdale, and what similarities exist between Bluffdale and Stockton?
Paul Pehrson
Terrible map that does not meet prop 4 standards. It’s like the map maker read the prop 4 standards and then decided to see how many ways they could NOT comply.
Ryan Lufkin
This map continues to ignore city boundaries in the quest to gerrymander our districts. Millcreek, South Salt Lake, Murray, Midvale and many more are arbitrarily chopped in half. Do better.
Ryan Cramer
Moab and Salt Lake City shouldn't be in the same district. It makes no sense. St. George is more similar to Moab and much more interconnected. It would make much more sense to put Moab in the St. George district along with a lot of the other rural areas of southern Utah. Everything south of Provo should be in one district. How the others should be split up I don't know Northern Utah well enough to say.
Adrienne Ainbinder
This map does not reflect the intentions of Prop 4. Having half of SLC represented alongside an area like Kamas or Oakley, while the other half of SLC is represented with Tooele is a clear effort to gerrymander. These lines do not represent literal communities within UT. This map option is unacceptable for Utah's next election.
Crystal Hicks
This map is a clear example of gerrymandering. By splitting the Salt Lake Valley, it divides a cohesive community into multiple districts in a way that appears more political than representative. The Salt Lake Valley shares common economic, cultural, and infrastructure concerns, and breaking it apart undermines the ability of residents to have a unified voice on issues that directly affect them. Rather than keeping communities of interest together, this map fractures them, weakening their political influence and making it harder for elected officials to address their shared needs effectively. It prioritizes partisan advantage over fair and meaningful representation.
Daren Young
Almost there, but divides the two most populated counties in a way that does not meet requirements of Proposition 4.
Jason Lyons
This map does not follow the requirements of Proposition 4. It divides Salt Lake County into multiple districts in a way that stretches across very different regions and communities, which weakens compactness and undermines community representation. The map creates unnecessary splits that fail to keep communities of interest intact.
Jason Peacock
Another map doesn't merit any further consideration. Just another map made to try and troll the citizens of SLC and SL County. Straight to the dumpster with this map.
Craig Shane
This is the least objectionable of the 4 maps being considered, but still does a grave disservice the the Salt Lake County Voters by diluting their common needs and voice into several districts.
Elizabeth Given
In some places it might make sense to divide along I-15, but our current map and this map both divide my city (Lehi) in half. We have so many of the same concerns and needs and should not be split in half.
Danica Puente
This division of Salt Lake County and the way rural counties have been split is totally insane.
Jessica D
This map does an incredibly poor job in the following areas: Giving political balance, competitiveness for political candidates, and territory lines break up populations in a very illogical way. Each district's population is going to be concerned with very different things and no one will be properly represented under this map (St. George and American Fork require very different needs from a political representative). It's very disappointing to see our leadership do what's best for them while thumbing their noses at the people they are supposed to be representing.
Hunter Fluckiger
Once again, diluting Salt Lake County voters, only maps where Salt Lake County remains largely intact should be considered. This is just allowing large rural populations to overrule the biggest county population once again
Nandini Vyas
There are too many dissimilar areas in this map. This doesn't make any sense.
Jason Peacock
Yet ANOTHER gerrymandered map that purposefully dilutes the SLC 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 complete waste of everyones time.
ROBERT MARKHAM
This map is terrible. It splits Salt Lake City into 2 districts.
Hayden H
This map does not support the needs of SLC residents or rural residents. We have different needs and deserve different representation. Looks like gerrymandering to me.
Joseph Boucher
This map once again splits the interests of Salt Lake City and dilutes rural votes. This is a bad map
Matthew Gardner
This map doesn't make any sense either. The interests of those of us in the city and suburban areas are going to be wildly different from those in the rural areas.
Melody Burt
Urban areas should not be combined with rural areas. They have totally different needs and ideologies. This map just waters down my ability for my voice to be heard. I have more in common with my neighbors than I do with people in the rural areas that are far away from where I live. How will I be able to have a conversation with them when we have nothing in common?
Josh Paulsen
I dislike this map. Cutting the SLC valley in half doesn't serve the communities and the similar issues people face in the SL valley.
William Lentz
This map cuts up communities, including mine, in a non-logical and gerrymandered fashion. It does not give urban areas a united voice and true representation. My representative in district 3 could never represent my interests in Canyon Rim while also trying to represent most of eastern rural Utah. With this map I have neighbors both to the north and to the west of me that are placed into other districts, for no logical reason. This map splits up communities in odd ways that should instead be grouped together to ensure proper representation of those areas of Utah. It seems to split up neighborhoods to the point that two neighbors could be in completely different districts. Also, the needs and concerns of the rural corners of Utah are going to be different than the more population dense urban centers and both need to be represented.
Rochelle Horrocks
I do not like Salt Lake district combined with very rural districts.
Christian Hansen
Any map that splits up SLC into rural counties is unacceptable.
Brady Young
The legislature just keeps dividing Salt Lake City on this one which has a clear primary motivation. And why the contention when a Democratic legislator simply asked to know whether a data set was used and the Republicans wouldn't say and exploded in anger that their motives were being questions. But we already know their motives. That's how they got in trouble with the courts in the first place!
allen phelps
there should not be any representation that places ST George and Nephi north on the same map
Dawn Wheeler
I like this map. No random islands for gerrymandering. It takes into consideration the demographics of each district - rural, small town, industrial, and large population, which gives voters a better choice for their region.
Daniel Herbert-Voss
This boundary appears somewhat arbitrary and maintains the east-west split without consideration of community boundaries.
Dominique Bellanger
This violates multiple standards of Prop 4 in keeping communities together. It ignores natural boundaries. it also combines urban and rural which is entirely unfair to rural communities.
Kayla Dragmire
The split of east and west sides of the valley is not in line with where most people commute and do business. Not to mention partisanship. I get the need to keep the population count about even, but this split doesn't seem like the way to do it.
Joey DeFilippis
Folks, this is an academic exercise because the legislature is not considering this map. I'm only commenting to inform you that Salt Lake County has more than one district's worth of people and it has to be split. It is better to be split between two than four districts.
Alison Satterlee
This is close, but shouldn't carve up Salt Lake County. Keep it intact.
CATHY Campbell
SL County should not be split.
Elizabeth Nakashima
This map unfairly places Southern Utah in the same district as Provo. Additionally, it continues to gerrymander Salt Lake County into different districts.
Tricia Ferre
This map puts Salt Lake City in with Southern Utah. I don't think they should be combined.
Kendra Hurst
Super unnecessary split down the middle of Salt Lake- this would place a huge burden on the representatives to meet the needs of all citizens.
Marc Fuentes
Salt Lake County should not be split if it can be helped. The only way I see splitting Salt Lake County would be to take the southern portion of it into Utah County (specifically, the cities of West Jordan, Copperton, Riverton, Bluffdale, & Draper). Rationale for this is these cities are likely to be best calibrated and aligned with communities in Utah County than with cities such as West Valley City or South Salt Lake.
Marc Fuentes
It does not make sense to exclude Morgan county from Cache, Box Elder, Weber, Davis, etc. As it is geographically and economically most tied to Weber and Davis Counties.
Kylie Frederick
This is quite terrible. It makes absolutely no sense to stretch half of the Salt Lake Valley to the East and Southern border of Utah across many rural regions, and the other half of the valley all the way West and most of the way South. Salt Lake Valley should be able to be represented in one district as best as possible
Megan Bates
Salt Lake County and other urban areas should be kept to one district as much as possible--given that urban and rural is one of the most prominent ideological divides in today's politics. I hesitate to think that a representative could advocate for my needs, someone who needs the great salt lake to stay filled for clean air, while impartially advocating for the needs of rural, farming Utah (who use the water for their livelihood but are also a significant part of water consumption). This is an example of how one issue is divided along urban/rural divides and urban constituents should trust that they have at least one representative who is working for them on the national level.
Mike Lyman
While this map does splinter the densest population areas, it at least creates districts that are similar in size and composition between urban, suburban, rural, and extremely remote. This could theoretically increase the odds that elected representatives would split their time more evenly across their district.
Katheen Hanna Millar
As a former resident of Southern Utah and current resident of Salt like I'd like to state that Salt Lake City Area has more in common with Davis, Weber and Utah County than with Wasatch County as far as community urban needs are concerned. District 3 should split along the Wasatch County line, and should instead include Wayne and Garfield, potentially even Piute, who have similar climate districts and ag needs as the Eastern part of the state, that make up a large part of this proposed district. District 2 should include all of Salt Lake County or split along the Jordan River and should end at the edge of Millard County. District 4 should include Beaver County.
