Utah County issues mask mandate
University of Utah political science professor Matthew Burbank said Henderson’s call
for a mask mandate in Utah County may be a case of the gubernatorial ticket “trying
to play both sides” of the issue.
“It’s a tricky position, right? Obviously, as an elected official from Utah County, she’s in a position to make that statement,” he said. But as a candidate for lieutenant governor running with Lt. Gov. Spencer Cox, “you would think even if she felt that way, she wouldn’t be likely to make that announcement.”
