Shireen Ghorbani

Shireen Ghorbani (Persian: شیرین قربانی; born June 7, 1981) is an American politician from Utah.

Ghorbani stated that she decided to run because of the debate on health care, and specifically Stewart's repeatedly voting against Obamacare.

"[11] After her loss to Stewart, Ghorbani ran for Salt Lake County Mayor, after an opening was created when Ben McAdams was elected to the U. S. Congress.

[12] Ghorbani then ran again, this time in the race to fill Jenny Wilson's vacant At Large A seat on the Salt Lake County Council.

She expressed a vision of improving mass transit, reforming the criminal justice system and becoming a renewable energy leader.

[4] The Salt Lake County Democratic Party Central Committee chose Ghorbani to fill the seat.
