Tooele City Council members, sitting as the city's canvassing body, unanimously certified the 2025 primary election results Wednesday after the city recorder presented the post-canvass report. The council voted 5-0 to accept the report, which shows 4,433 Tooele City ballots counted out of 18,159 registered voters, for an overall turnout of about 24.4 percent.

City Recorder Shiloh Baker presented the packet of results and said the packet includes a sworn affidavit from Tooele County Clerk Tracy Shaw attesting that the county’s results are “true and correct” to the clerk’s knowledge and that the election was conducted in compliance with ballot-security guidance from the lieutenant governor’s office. Baker also noted the county maintains the voter registration database in accordance with applicable federal and state laws and that local post‑election audits helped verify the automated counts.

The certified mayoral primary totals listed in the report show Marie Saturnio Limanzione received 1,866 votes (42.53 percent), Brad Pratt received 1,358 votes (30.95 percent), Karen Bentancourt received 977 votes (22.27 percent) and Primus Butler received 187 votes (4.26 percent). According to the certified results, Limanzione and Pratt will advance to the Nov. 4 general election. (The transcript contains inconsistent spellings for the leading mayoral candidate; the names above are taken from the certified totals included in the packet.)

The city council primary results in the packet show John Gossett with 2,105 votes (26.97 percent), Dave McCall with 1,884 votes (24.14 percent), Spencer Peck with 1,481 votes (18.97 percent), and Emily Chandler with 1,380 votes (17.68 percent). Kelly Anderson received 956 votes (12.25 percent). The top four vote-getters listed will move on to the Nov. 4 general election for two council seats.

Baker noted District 4 — described in the packet as the area south of Skyline Drive, north of Vine Street, from Drew Bay Road east to about Seventh Street on the west — had the highest turnout at 40.65 percent. She also described participating in ballot opening, counting and the post-election audit and said members of the public are welcome to observe county audit and verification procedures at the county clerk’s office.

Councilmember Goches made a motion to accept the post-canvass report as presented; Councilman Dave McCall seconded. The council then took a roll-call vote: McCall, Hansen, Goches, Manzione and Brady each voted aye and the motion passed 5-0. No amendments or conditions to certification were recorded.

The recorded packet and the county clerk’s affidavit will be posted online at toolacity.gov/elections and on the Tooele County Clerk’s website, the recorder said. The meeting adjourned at 7:06 p.m.
