Oct 03, 2008 by Jeff Robinson

Democrat for Salt Lake County Council

(KCPW News) Democratic Salt Lake County Councilman Randy Horiuchi has been a longtime figure in the Salt Lake County Government, having served as a commissioner from 1991 through 1998.  Before that, he founded Focus Government Services, a consulting and lobbying firm.  When the county switched from having commissioners to a county council, he won election in 2000 and again in 2002, and is now just finishing up his first full six-year term.  Horiuchi has served on the boards of many civic groups like the Utah Association of Counties and the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and lives in Salt Lake City.  He was also president of the Salt Lake Chapter of the Japanese American Citizen’s League.  He’s running against Republican Steve DeBry, a captain with the sheriff’s office.
