Monday, June 11, 2007 Love it or hate it, Margaret Dayton is a conservative. Now she has the numbers to prove it. Two conservative groups gave the freshman senator their highest ratings this year. She received a 100% from the Utah Taxpayers Association which evaluated legislators on 15 key tax and spending bills. Dayton also received the top senate score from Utah GrassRoots. Senators Stephenson and Jenkins also received high scores, but not as high as Dayton. GrassRoots evaluates the voting record of legislators on the basis of over 25 bills that focus on principles of the Constitution, limited government, free market economy, separation of powers, and the family. Senator Dayton is new to the senate but she is a veteran legislator, having served 10 years in the House of Representatives. |
