Ronald Winterton announced Friday that he has joined the pool of those running for Utah State Senate District 26. Winterton has served for 10 years as a Duchesne County Commissioner, working closely with Senator Kevin Van Tassell who currently holds the Senate District 26 seat but will not be seeking re-election. Ron has witnessed first hand how important it is to have a powerful, respected voice in our State’s capital, shares Winterton’s press announcement. From the energy extraction in the Uintah Basin to the ski slopes of Summit County, the counties in District 26 generate a lot of the income for the state and because of this it also has many unique and challenging issues facing it, the announcement continues. “I feel that I am uniquely positioned to represent these wonderful and diverse issues for the great people of District 26,” states Winterton. “As a Commissioner, I have worked not only with my constituents in Duchesne County, but with many in Uintah, Wasatch, Summit and Daggett Counties as well. I feel I have a good grasp on the issues and politics in these great counties.” To learn more about Ronald Winterton or his campaign, visit
