Analyzing The Utah Legislature: Roll Call Partisanship 2006 — House
Tuesday, March 25th, 2008
This is a continuation of the post on partisan House roll calls in 2005 (q.v.). More of these are coming, including the recent sessions.
Utah Representative Dave Hogue (R-Riverton) retired after 2006 to run for Senate. He recently reentered electoral politics to run for his old seat. There was a twist, though, as he filed to run as a Democrat. The Riverton area is strongly Republican with the Republican winning 66% of the vote in 2006 for House District 52 so his prospects will depend on name recognition and constituent memory. The history here indicates that Hogue has always been a centrist, crossing party lines more than one third of the time. Democrats should expect no different if he rejoins the House.
