As progressives in the state of Utah, we are proud to be part of a community that values fairness, equity, and opportunity for all. These values unite us in a state where many of us have experienced the pain of being an outsider. It is because of these shared values that we can’t stop ruminating about the results of our recent Salt Lake City mayoral election.
Two good, committed people ran for mayor of our city. One of them had over 20 years of experience as a leader in both the public and private sectors. Her career perfectly positioned her for the job.
