The 2nd District stretches from the Summit County, Utah line and goes west to the Nevada border and down through St. George. It includes parts of Davis, Salt Lake, Sanpete, and Juab Counties.
The current incumbent is Republican Chris Stewart who has represented the district since 2012, after former representative of Utah-02, Jim Matheson decided to run for the Utah 4th Congressional District. The district has a PVI of R+18.
Democrat candidate Charlene McArthur Albarran announced her intention to run on February 1, 2016,[1] and formally filed with the Utah Elections office on March 11, 2016.[2] She will run against Representative Chris Stewart who is seeking his third term.
District 4
The 4th district is located in northern-central Utah and includes parts of Salt Lake, Utah, Juab, and Sanpete counties. The incumbent is Republican Mia Love, who has represented the district since 2015. She was elected with 50% of the vote in 2014 and the district has a PVI of R+16.
Democrat Doug Owens, who lost to Love in the 2014 election to succeed retiring Democratic Congressman Jim Matheson, will run in a rematch against Love.[3][4]
