What a crazy night. Philpot came within 150 votes at one point. But the reality was obvious. he was relying on Washington County, Iron County and Utah County Voters to overcome Salt Lake County voters. That is a huge margin to overcome and has been the secret to Matheson Wins each time. Those Salt Lake County voters love the man.
Dixon Pitcher and Randy Rounds ran a good campaign. Dixon won by a larger margin then I thought he would, so I stand corrected. Rounds is a great guy, I think his poor campaign literature and campaigning in September a little too early hurt him. Dixon really ramped it up the last few weeks and brought it in for a home run. Congrats.
All other offices in Weber County (that had a Republican Challenger) were swept by the Republicans. Not a big day for Democrats in Weber County. So Republicans, we are watching. Make a difference for us.
All the constitutional amendments passed as expected. It will be interesting to see how this ethics committee works out.
Great Job everyone on a well fought election cycle. Now we get a small break for a few months before campaigning begins on the next one.
