How these profiles work. Votes come from the council minutes as summarized on our council meeting pages, which link the official minutes. Our vote records start in January 2020, so earlier terms are listed but their votes are not counted. West Jordan's mayor is the city's elected executive, not a member of the council, and does not vote on council items, so the mayor's profile has no voting record. Disclosures and campaign contributions are as written on the forms the city posts. A listed interest or contribution is a public record, not a finding of wrongdoing.
