Utah County Democratic Party Secretary Resigns; New Secretary Appointed

Gwyn Franson

Deon Turley

Deon Turley, county party secretary for the past year, resigned her position at the county party executive committee meeting on January 5, 2010. Turley will make an announcement soon about her future political plans.

The Executive Committee appointed Gwyn Franson to fill out the remainder of Turley's two year term. She will serve until May 2011.

Franson was a state legislative candidate in HD27 in 2008. She is a former member of the Highland City Council and currently is an elementary school teacher in Highland.

"We're sad to see Deon go," said Richard Davis, county party chair. "She has been an excellent secretary. She's done a great job of helping keep us organized. We're also excited that Gwyn has agreed to serve to fill the remainder of Deon's term. She will be a great asset to the party as we enter the 2010 campaign."
