Breaking Down Utah's Primary Election Races
The races for Utah's primary elections are officially set. Host Jason Perry leads a discussion evaluating the top races voters will decide, and what those races say about the state of politics in the the Beehive State. Plus, new polling reveals Utahns concerns about major issues. THE DEEPER DIVE: • ️ Utah's Republican and Democratic Parties both held nominating conventions this past week. Our expert panel examines the outcomes and what the format of each meeting says about each party.• Attendance at each event was high, but in each instance the number of delegates represents a small number of Utah's total population. We examine why many political insiders believe this system is still important and why some feel it leaves other viewpoints unrepresented.• 1️⃣ In Utah's 1st Congressional District, four Democrats will face each other in the primary election. Liban Mohamed and Ben McAdams received the most votes at convention and will be joined by Nate Blouin and Michael Farrell who each gathered signatures. The winner of that primary will face Republican Riley Owen in November.• 2️⃣ In Utah's 2nd Congressional District, sitting Congressman Blake Moore will face Utah Rep. Karianne Lisonbee (R-Clearfield) in the Republican primary. Lisonbee won at the convention, but M oore qualified through signature gathering. The winner of that primary will face Democrat Peter Crosby in November.• 3️⃣ In Utah's 3rd Congressional District, sitting Congresswoman Celeste Maloy will face former Utah Rep. Phil Lyman (R-Blanding) in the Republican primary. Both received delegate support at the convention. The winner of that primary will face Democrat Kent Udell in November. ️ FEATURING:• Maura Carabello – President, Exoro Group• Rob Axson – Chairman, Utah Republican Party• Eric Biggart – Executive Committee, Utah Democratic Party Funding for The Hinckley Report is made possible in part by the Cleone Peterson Eccles Endowment Fund and by the financial contributions of PBS Utah members.

Utah Politics Impacted by Accusations of Scandal
Utah's congressional contests are beginning to take shape. Host Jason Perry leads a discussion about how endorsements and accusations of scandal are impacting the races. Plus, Utah leaders weigh in on national headlines. THE DEEPER DIVE: • ⚖️ Utah Supreme Court Justice Diana Hagen has been accused of an inappropriate relationship with an attorney who argued the Prop 4 redistricting case before the court. Governor Spencer Cox and legislative leadership are moving forward with an independent investigation into the matter, but Justice Hagen has denied any wrongdoing. We evaluate what impact this could have on the public's trust in the process.• Utah Rep. Trevor Lee (R-Layton) is facing accusations of past impropriety regarding his actions in a former job that involved check fraud. This news dropped just days before Lee faces a challenger at the Davis County Republican Convention. Our panel examines waht this could mean for his future in the Utah Legislature.• The Democratic race for Utah's 1st Congressional District is heating up. This week, a national political news website published numerous controversial posts published by Sen. Nate Blouin (D-Millcreek) several years ago. Blouin quickly apologized for the offensive comments, but calls for him to drop out of the race came from many members of his own party. We discuss Blouin's response and why some Democrats are still supporting his candidacy.• ️ In the Republican race for Utah's 2nd Congressional District, incumbent Blake Moore is facing stiff competition from State Rep. Karianne Lisonbee. She has recently stated that Moore's past support for independent redistricting should be reason enough for voters to not send him back to Washington. Our panel evaluates what impact this will have on the race.• Controversy over Utah Valley University's scheduled commencement speaker has resulted in the school decidiing to have no speaker at all. Social media influencer Sharon McMahon, also known as "America's Government Teacher", had been selected by the shool to speak to graduates, but some students were upset over comments McMahon made in the wake of the Charlie Kirk assassination at UVU. The university eventually decided that out of safety concerns, there would be no speaker. ️ FEATURING:• Heidi Hatch – KUTV 2News• Marty Carpenter – Partner, Northboudn Strategy• Daniel Woodruff – Reporter, KSL Funding for The Hinckley Report is made possible in part by the Cleone Peterson Eccles Endowment Fund and by the financial contributions of PBS Utah members.

Voter Privacy in Utah, Congressional Races, & $1B for the Great Salt Lake
A change in Utah law means the voter registration information of hundreds of thousands of Utahns could soon be made public. Host Jason Perry leads a discussion examining the change, and what this means for some voters. Plus, the campaigns for Utah's 4 congressional seats are heating up. THE DEEPER DIVE: • ️ A change to Utah law regarding voter registration information is making headlines this week. Lieutenant Governor Deidre Henderson sent letters to the approximately 300,000 voters who will be impacted. Previously, Utah voters could choose to keep their voter registration data private, but the state legislature passed a bill in the most recent legislative session requiring that voters apply for an exemption. Our panel evaluates how this could change the dynamics of elections in the Beehive State moving forward. • ⚖️ That change comes amid a legal fight between Utah and the federal government over the state's voter rolls. The Trump administration wants Utah to hand over all voter registrations, including sensitive data like social security numbers. But the Lieutenant Governor has refused, citing state law that would prevent her from doing so. We look at arguments on both side of the debate.• Campaigning for Utah's four congressional seats is kicking into high gear. The Republican and Democratic parties will both hold their nominating conventions at the end of the month, and several candidates have already qualified for the primary ballot through signature gathering. We discuss the unique intra-party challengers facing incumbents this year.• Pres. Donald Trump has earmarked $1 billion in his proposed budget for the next fiscal year to help save the Great Salt Lake. But that doesn't mean the funding will actually be approved. Our panel examines the politics that could keep it from passing, and how Utah managed to get to this point. ️ FEATURING:• McKenzie Romero – Editor, Utah News Dispatch• Brigham Tomco – Reporter, Deseret News• Sean Higgins – Reporter, KUER News Funding for The Hinckley Report is made possible in part by the Cleone Peterson Eccles Endowment Fund and by the financial contributions of PBS Utah members.
