Utah’s Legislature has 75 representatives and 29 senators. If a bill receives 38 House votes (a majority of one) and 15 Senate votes (also a majority of one), the bill passes and goes to the governor for signature. If the governor signs it, the bill becomes law, and everyone believes the process is fair.
Proposition 4, the independent redistricting, anti-gerrymandering ballot initiative, passed by a small majority of Utah voters, yet some legislators have already indicated that we (or, more specifically, the Legislature) should ignore it because the close vote does not express clear-cut support of the measure.
