The conservatives might claim that it is Salt Lake City.
Newt Gingrich: “We are the center”
SLC is actually pretty liberal.
Maybe. Maybe not.
Unless you know something we don't, Salt Lake County has not released precinct data. But the county itself was 60-38 Bush. That hardly suggests SLC itself is liberal, but maybe moderate. Downtown SLC might have voted Kerry.
SLC is liberal by Utah standards, and probably by national standards too but it doesn't compare to other cities.
HOWEVER, something to think about, the actual city makes up less than 1/5th of the total county population...if memory serves me correctly.
