New Congressional District for Utah


My primary concern in looking at congressional districts is, "Do the districts keep communities together". To get four congressional districts in Utah and to keep communities together, I believe the districts should be centered on:

1. Weber/Davis/Cache counties
2. Northern Salt Lake County
3. Southern Salt Lake County
4. Utah County

I think the proposed Huntsman plan does a good job with this. There will need to be some adjustments to get the variations between districts down to a legal level but it looks like a good starting point to me.
