DescriptionThe joke goes that Gary Ott, Salt Lake County's elected recorder since 2002, misspelled his last name on the navy blue-and-yellow (think University of Michigan) lawn signs that bore his name. More like Gary "Odd," some who know the man would say.

This story, says Julie Dole, the county's deputy chief recorder and Ott's right-hand in the office, is one of her boss' favorites. That's just Gary, Dole says, an "odd guy."

"Anybody that knows Gary, [thinks] he's odd," Dole says. "He's not just your normal guy. He does things differently."

Dole's characterization of Ott arrives amid accusations from some county employees that the four-term county recorder is suffering from some type of ailment, which, according to some, was registering well before he won reelection to a six-year term in 2014, and is now spurring questions about the man's ability to do his job.
