Early Election Results Suggest Murray May Be On Its Way To First-Ever Female Majority

11/5/2019

For the first time ever, Murray City Council looks like it may soon have a female majority. Initial (unofficial) election results indicate that Kat Martinez will win council district 1’s seat that was formerly held by Dave Nicponski, with a nine percent lead over Jake Pehrson. Rosalba Dominguez holds a smaller lead over Adam Thompson with a five percent lead in district 3, for the seat held by Jim Brass. Brett Hales ran unopposed in District 5.

Voters appeared to be unphased by both Pehrson and Thompson campaigns stating that their opposition raised substantial funds outside of Murray City. If results hold, Martinez and Dominguez would join fellow city councilwoman Diane Turner in January to make up the female majority, along with returning councilmen Hales and Dale Cox.

Martinez is a former middle school teacher and works as a childcare provider trainer for the State of Utah. She has served on the Murray Arts Advisory Council and the Viewmont Elementary Parent-Teacher Association. Dominguez lists her profession as an independent design consultant, and also serves as a member of the Utah Hispanic Advisory Council.

Voters in eastern Murray also voted on the Cottonwood Improvement District Board of Trustees with Mark Katter and Welsey Fisher securing the two at-large seats.
