    • Dan E. Jones (1934-2018) was an American educator and political pollster from Utah. Jones was a Professor and Associate Director of University of Utah's Hinckley Institute of Politics from 1978 to 2013, and many of his former students are involved in Utah politics at every level. He also co-founded the public opinion polling group Dan Jones & Associates, Utah's most prominent polling firm. Kirk Jowers, former director of the Hinckley institute, has said that "Dan Jones has had the largest impact of probably anyone in Utah on civic participation."
