Thank You, Utah.
First and foremost, we want to congratulate Governor Cox and Lieutenant Governor Henderson on their re-election. We wish them every success as they lead Utah over the next four years.
From the very beginning, this campaign has been about more than politics. It’s been about standing up for the values that define who we are as Utahns—service, family, freedom, democracy, and common sense. One of the things we are most proud of in this campaign is the coalition we built—a coalition of pragmatists, not purists. We reached across the political divide and connected with Utahns of all backgrounds. To all the Democrats, Republicans, and Independents who supported us, who looked beyond party loyalty in search of common-sense leadership, thank you. You are not alone in feeling that our state can do better, and though this election is over, we will always have a place for you with us.
To our team, to the volunteers, the donors, and all of you who believed in this message—thank you. You poured your hearts into this campaign, and together, we’ve shown Utah what a strong, values-driven Democratic campaign looks like. None of this would have been possible without your work and dedication.
Though we didn’t get the outcome we worked so hard for, we are both incredibly proud of what we achieved together, as a team. There are significant challenges facing our state, and we have to keep advocating for solutions that prioritize people over politics. Utah deserves leaders who will stand for character and integrity, and we are both committed to continuing that work alongside all of you.
Our journey does not end here. We are moving forward together, for the better.

MEET BRIAN
I'm Brian King and I am running to be the next Governor of Utah. I was born into a legacy of pioneers. My roots in Utah run deep. Raised in a household of ranchers and lawyers, I learned to navigate nuanced discussions and developed a commitment to justice. As a legal trailblazer, I fight to get mental health coverage for families. It’s a constant David vs. Goliath battle. Father of four girls, step-father to three step-children, happily married, my life revolves around family, career, and public service. From serving as an LDS Bishop to being House Minority Leader, I've honed the art of thoughtful disagreement for the better. Join me in shaping a Utah where differences are celebrated, echoing the values learned around my own dinner table.

"You’re not alone in feeling like your party has abandoned you. You aren’t alone in feeling that no party speaks for your priorities and values. I'm running to offer an alternative — a government that prioritizes the public good over personal interests, delivering results, not rhetoric, and a culture of courage and character, not contention — for the better."
MEET REBEKAH
I'm Rebekah Cummings, your candidate for Lieutenant Governor. Growing up amidst diverse and politically divided surroundings, I learned early the importance of bridging divides. In my blue-collar, conservative upbringing in a liberal city, I found solace in books and libraries. Now, as a mom of three, I’m the Director of Digital Matters at the University of Utah, Chair of the Utah State Library Board, and founding member of the Let Utah Read Coalition. Balancing family, education, work, and service, I've championed intellectual freedom and community engagement. With a vision for pragmatic governance and a dedication to empowering families, I'm ready to lead Utah toward a future where every voice is heard and every individual thrives – for the better.
