Utah Legislative Races Heat Up

Published 2 days, 20 hours ago
Description

Utah’s primary elections are boiling down to a week before results, with big battles brewing inside both parties as incumbents face serious threats. In State Senate District 7, the Senate President is under fire from two challengers over his role in a controversial data center project — voters seem more focused on change than personalities. Elsewhere, lawmakers are battling accusations of misconduct and well-known local rivals, while unions wage proxy wars to unseat lawmakers they say ignore their interests. The money trail is wild too — legislative races are seeing record PAC spending, often from shadowy outside groups, outpacing even congressional contests. And AI is making its debut in campaign mailers and helping new candidates launch sites affordably — expect tighter regulations on campaign AI next year.
