Robert Axson, chairman of the Utah Republican Party, addresses nearly 4,000 delegates at the opening session of the party's annual convention, Saturday, April 27, 2024, at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City. —six hours later than planned—and in the end, incumbents were left fighting more than sleep.
Utah GOP voters generally prefer moderates in statewide elections, however, so the more moderate Cox, who took office in 2021, is seen as well positioned for the June 25 primary. He has gathered enough signatures to qualify for that ballot despite not getting the nod from the convention, and would go on the general election ballot in November if he wins in June.
But Curtis, Wilson, and Walton all qualified for the primary with the required number of signatures. So the GOP race for U.S. Senate—now a four-person contest—will also be decided by voters in two months.
