Carolina Herrin
Utah County Commission Seat B
Real experience.
Real results.
Ready to serve Utah County.
From undercover investigations to county policy, Carolina has spent her life doing the work that matters.
Vote for Carolina at the Utah County Republican Convention -- April 18th at Skyridge High School
Utah County is one of the fastest-growing counties in the country. That growth brings real pressure on roads, budgets, infrastructure, and the relationship between residents and their government.
Carolina has been preparing for this moment for a long time.
She previously worked directly for a Utah County Commissioner, helping residents navigate county services and coordinating with cities and departments on everyday challenges. She now serves as Legislative Affairs Director for the Utah Department of Corrections, working closely with legislators and elected officials across the state. She understands both sides of the equation: how county government operates from the inside, and how to advocate for Utah County at the state level.
Carolina has been active in Utah County Republican politics since 2006.
She has served as Vice Chair of the Utah County Republican Party and on both the UTGOP and UCRP Central Committees. She is a National Delegate, a member of the State Central Committee, a Legislative District Chair and was chosen as one of two Utah national Delegates to serve on the Republican National Committee Credentials Committee.
She was one of the sponsors of the grassroots effort to repeal Proposition 4, working alongside the Utah County Republican Party, the Utah Republican Party, and the Republican National Committee. Prop 4 would have removed redistricting authority from elected legislators and handed it to an unaccountable commission.
Carolina believes in the caucus-convention system.
She is not gathering signatures to get on the ballot, and she commits to not gathering signatures when running for re-election.
Carolina will stay true to conservative principles.
Fiscal responsibility
The County Commission controls how taxpayer dollars are spent. Carolina will push for real scrutiny of the county budget, work to reduce unnecessary spending, and make sure departments are incentivized to save rather than spend everything they have just to protect next year's allocation.
Roads and infrastructure
Utah County's transportation challenges require the county to show up consistently and advocate clearly with UDOT and the Mountainland Association of Governments. Carolina will be that advocate, pushing for planning that keeps pace with growth rather than reacting to it after the fact.
Transparency
Residents should not have to dig to find out how their money is being spent or why decisions are being made. Carolina will push for clearer communication from the county and make sure residents across all of Utah County have a real voice.
Public safety
Carolina will ensure the Sheriff's Office, first responders and county attorneys, have what they need. She will work with law enforcement leadership and rank-and-file officers to keep Utah County a safe place to live and raise a family.
Agriculture
She is a strong advocate for the county's agricultural roots, pushing for continued partnerships with organizations such as the Farm Bureau to protect farmland amid rapid development. She also points to Utah Lake as one of the largest freshwater lakes in the west, it is critical that Utah lake is restored to its natural balance and improved water quality.
