Utah Policy Daily kills Governor Cal Rampton in 1997, blames the state

Posted in May 16th, 2008

Hey, sometimes folks get it wrong, like the Utah Policy Daily did today with this silly nugget:

Calvin Lewellyn Rampton

Cal Rampton was one of Utah’s most popular governors, serving three terms from Jan. 4, 1965, to Jan. 3, 1977. He was preceded by George Dewey Clyde and succeeded by Scott M. Matheson. He died Sept, 16, 1997, at age 93. [...]

Not too big a deal, I guess, except they linked to Utah History on the Go, as their source material. The State run History on the Go doesn’t even know that Governor Cal Rampton passed away last year. Way to go UPD and Utah.

Maybe he was a zombie for a decade you insensitive clod! Way to show respect for Undead-Americans.
