35th Utah State Legislature
Encyclopedia
The 35th Utah State Legislature
was elected Tuesday, November 6, 1962 and convened on Monday, January 14, 1963.
Prior to the 1962 election which brought Republicans to power, Utah Democrats
controlled one U.S. Senate seat, both U.S. House districts, the Utah Senate
(14-11), the Utah House (36-28) and controlled the majority of County Offices (146-117).. After the election, the balance of power sifted to Utah Republicans
who controlled the State Senate (13-12), State House (33-31), both Congressional Seats, and one Senate Seat along with the majority of County Offices (133-130). Republicans also elected a Republican as Utah's Attorney General
.. Democrat Frank Moss was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1958 and served until 1976, being defeated in the 1976 election by current Utah Senator Orrin Hatch
(as of 2006) thus dividing the Utah Senate delegation between the Democratic and Republican parties.
