Utah County winners eager to get to work
|
Jim Brady delivered the news to his wife over the phone while she was putting the children to bed. She said she felt relief and "a bit scared."
"I'm just really excited and looking forward to getting busy," she said.
"I'm thrilled at what happened and I'm just glad I've got the opportunity to keep serving the people of Spanish Fork," he said.
He said he planned to celebrate by going to bed and getting back to work Wednesday morning.
Apparently Eagle Mountain residents considered questionable actions and pasts while voting in their election. Richard Culbertson, whose real estate license was revoked and publicized, received 501 votes to Heather Jackson's 1,535. Linn Strouse, the incumbent city councilwoman who is charged with a felony, received 527 votes, the lowest of all the City Council candidates. Ryan Ireland, Donna Burnham and Eric Cieslak will now be part of the City Council.
Residents of Cedar Hills, where one incumbent was running, re-elected Jim Perry and elected Kenneth Kirk and Marisa Wright.
Kirk said Tuesday night that he was excited and believed that all of the candidates would do a good job.
Lehi was one of the only cities to re-elect all of its incumbents up for re-election. Mark Johnson, James Dixon and Johnny Revill all received more than 3,000 votes from Lehi residents.
