Elections Uptight Mormons in Utah are offended by the Governor's last name & asks him to change it

[Rhood]

“A very concerned citizen” has brought it to the attention of Utah Gov. Spencer Cox that his surname sounds like slang for part of the male anatomy.

“Because of your reluctance to change your foul, dirty and obscene name, myself and thousand of other Utahns will be sitting in protest, not standing, until you change your heinous surname to something less offensive,” V.C. Citizen continues.

“This is a social justice issue and will not be denied basic human decency!,” the missive continues. “If our simple request is not met we will assemble and do what democracy was made to do by recalling you from office because of your filthy surname.

“This is not a communist dictatorship. THIS IS THE GREAT STATE OF UTAH! We do not accept sick jokes to run rampant in our civil institutions. We demand a response to this letter and we expect to hear back from your office soon.”
The writer’s name, if it was included, appears to have been cut from the bottom of the letter before the photo was shared.

The constituent’s letter was received on Aug. 5 by the Governor’s Office of Constituent Services, and forwarded to the highest echelon of the state’s executive branch.
Cox shared an image of the letter Friday on his personal Twitter account.

Title makes it seem it was plural people.

Letter shows it was a single person.

Wasn't that Buster Highman's girl?

Hopefully Andy Dick never runs for office. Or anyone with the name Richard.

When I was in grade 5 I had a teacher named Mr. Cox.

A kid wrote in whiteout on a wood bench, "Mr. Cox is a cocksucker."

I bet that kid went on to be highly successful.

Well since a guy from the honorable Republican party said it, then I must agree with him and defend him.

LOL - obviously a joke

He should respond and say that not only will he be changing his surname, per the request, but that he will be changing his gender identity and pronouns too.
