Democratic delegates Wednesday night elected Rebecca Chavez-Houck to State House District 24 by an overwhelming majority vote.“Now the real work begins,” said Chavez-Houck, who was communications coordinator for the Democratic House Caucus and a long-time party activist.
The vote filled the seat held by Ralph Becker, who won the race for Salt Lake City mayor in November.
Four others filed for the seat: Richard Goldberger, David Berg, Mark Swonson, and Trudy Henderson
Also, Karen Mayne was elected to fill the State Senate District 5 seat that became vacant when her husband, Ed Mayne, died several weeks ago. She ran unopposed.
The votes were held at the Salt Lake County Council Chambers.
