Why would the Davis County Democratic Party endorse candidates in a Syracuse non-partisan race?


Why is the Mayor's house being used as a place for the Davis County Democratic Party members to meet and campaign for the 3 incumbents in the Syracuse city council race? 

City races are non-partisan in Utah. But the Davis County Democratic Party  (scroll down for the story) is encouraging all of its members to vote for the 3 incumbents: Clark, Peterson and Ocana. We looked on the Republican Party website and couldn't find any listings of candidates to support there. Isn't that unethical in a non-partisan race? Dunno, just strikes us as odd. What do you think?

And this is even more odd -the Davis Democratic Party website has a link to our Mayor's address and her husband is the Davis County Democratic party treasurer.  Even though the Mayor is a democrat, too, we thought she would keep the "party" out of Syracuse elections.

They are saying some pretty inflammatory things about the other candidates. Of Course most Syracuse residents don't go for that type of politicking. In Syracuse we like to do our homework. If you haven't had a chance to talk to all the candidates and ask them where they stand, here is their contact information:
