Female Dem Congressional Candidate in Utah Accused of Making 'Unwanted Sexual Advances' to Four Women
PJ Media ^ | 04/23/2026 | Rick Moran

The Salt Lake City Tribune is reporting that an openly lesbian city council member running for Congress has been accused by four women of making "unwanted sexual advances."

Lopez Chavez says that "nothing inappropriate" happened between her and three other women, while the alleged contact with the fourth woman never occurred.

"Victoria Petro, who is Lopez Chavez’s fellow City Council member; Maggie Regier, who worked on Stan Penfold’s mayoral campaign in 2019; Hoang Nguyen, who is now a state representative; and Jen Plumb, now a state senator, described their allegations in interviews with The Salt Lake Tribune," reports the newspaper. The incidents all occurred before Lopez Chavez joined the Salt Lake City City Council in 2023. Petro, Regier and Nguyen all said they told others of the sexual advances by Lopez Chavez.

Salt Lake City Tribune:

None of the four reported the interactions to police or spoke about them publicly until now. They said they decided to come forward, in part, because of Lopez Chavez’s candidacy for Congress in Utah’s new 1st District and after her reaction to newly disclosed online posts that fellow candidate Nate Blouin made between 2009 and 2015, including statements that minimized sexual assault.

In her statement in response to Blouin’s posts, Lopez Chavez described herself as a survivor of domestic violence and sexual assault and said Blouin should drop out of the race. Leadership, she said, is “defined by integrity and consistency — especially in how we treat women and respond to harm.”

She added: “Our communities deserve leaders who take these issues seriously — not just in rhetoric but in conduct. We cannot excuse behavior — past or present — that trivializes or undermines the seriousness of sexual violence

FROM THE DAILY CALLER:

https://dailycaller.com/2026/04/23/four-women-accuse-lesbian-running-for-congress-in-utah-of-unwanted-sexual-advances/

[EXCERPT]

Democratic Utah state Rep. Hoang Nguyen, who also runs a medical cannabis company and works in a investment group, recounted a 2022 incident in which she and López Chávez were departing from a campaign event for Plumb. López Chávez asked Nguyen for a ride to her car before asking Nguyen to pull over, the state lawmaker told the Tribune.

“Next thing I know she has leaned over and she’s on top of me, holding my shoulders down,” Nguyen said. “I said, ‘What are you doing?’ And she said, ‘Kiss me.’ She said, ‘I’m not going to get off you until you kiss me.’ I gave her a peck and she got off.”

They claim that men being “too macho” is from too high levels of testosterone. Is that what’s up with an aggressive Lesbian - too much testosterone?? Just asking.

Many lesbians tend to be partial to fantasies of non-consensual sex. This one seems to have been acting it out. Sex researchers Masters and Johnson explored this many years ago; apparently little has changed.

Female, Hispanic, and gay. She satisfies too many of the left’s checkboxes to be punished.

FOR EVEN THEIR WOMEN DID CHANGE THE NATURAL
USE INTO THAT WHICH IS AGAINST NATURE:


Romans 1:24-28
King James Version

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of
their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

26 FOR THIS CAUSE God gave them up unto vile affections:
FOR EVEN THEIR WOMEN DID CHANGE THE NATURAL USE
INTO THAT WHICH IS AGAINST NATURE:

27 AND LIKEWISE ALSO THE MEN, LEAVING THE NATURAL USE
OF THE WOMAN, BURNED IN THEIR LUST ONE TOWARD ANOTHER;
MEN WITH MEN WORKING THAT WHICH IS UNSEEMLY, AND RECEIVING
IN THEMSELVES THAT RECOMPENCE OF THEIR ERROR WHICH WAS MEET.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God
in their knowledge, God gave them over to a REPROBATE MIND,
to do those things which are not convenient;
