Politics

When State Representative Bryan D. Holladay was elected Mayor of West Jordan in 2001, he recommended Mascaro as his replacement. Receiving the nomination from Republican Party of Utah, Mascaro ran unopposed and took office representing district 47 of the Utah House of Representatives on January 8, 2002. Facing contenders in future campaigns, he was reelected in 2004, 2006, and 2008. In 2010 he ran against Republican Ken Ivory for the Republican Party nomination, and was defeated at the county convention 77%–23%. Following his failed attempt at re-nomination he endorsed Democratic candidate John Rendell for his former seat. In 2008 Mascaro was one of five state representatives filing a bipartisan ethics complaint against a fellow Republican for allegedly bribing his opponent during a primary election. Shortly later, an unrelated report by a female intern about Mascaro was leaked, with the suggestion of improper conduct. Speaking to the media Mascaro dismissed the report, arguing the story was retaliation by House party leadership, who had already labeled Mascaro a "dissident Republican."
