Election Coverage

Filing for state offices closed on Monday. Most races will see some competition. Since the primary will eliminate candidates from the same party, I will concentrate first on races where there are multiple Democrats or Republicans running. Quite a few candidates represent third parties as well. Both the Constitutional and Libertarian Party will have a decent showing on the ballot. If you are interested to learn more about either of these parties, check out their websites:

Libertarian Party of Utah: http://www.lputah.org/

This election, like many others, is filled with rematches, party-switchers, familiar faces from the past and interesting characters.
