Two candidates are campaigning for a Utah County seat in the state House of Representatives this fall.
Incumbent Rep. David Shallenberger, R-Orem, is looking to represent House District 58, which also includes a sliver of Wasatch County, for a second term. His Democratic opponent is Karli Black, a co-founder of a commercial real estate brokerage.
During the 2026 general session in Capitol Hill, Shallenberger worked on a bill that provides other routes to accessing Utah’s Wildlife Management Areas other than through the purchase of a hunting or fishing license. He also ran a bill that barred the state engineer from considering impacts on recreation and the environment when someone applies for water rights.
Shallenberger’s campaign website also lists education, limited taxation and economic development as priorities.
Black is focused on affordability, especially in housing, access to early childhood education, and air quality.
The candidates are vying for votes in the district, which covers eastern Lindon, eastern Orem, northeastern Provo and Sundance.
The Salt Lake Tribune invited both candidates to answer a questionnaire featuring reader questions about affordability, government corruption, water resources and their stances on two constitutional amendments included on the ballot this year. Neither Shallenberger nor Black replied.
Election Day is Nov. 3. Mail ballots must be dropped off at a ballot dropbox by 8 p.m. on Election Day or, if returned by mail, must be received by the county clerk by 8 p.m. on Election Day.
