In an unusual twist, Utah’s Evan McMullin, who is running as an Independent against the Republican Senator Mike Lee, has the backing of the state’s Democratic conference.
Last week, when Representative Chris Jacobs, a Republican from the Buffalo suburbs, abandoned his reëlection campaign after facing backlash from members of his own party for supporting gun control, it demonstrated once again that Republican leaders are more interested in being elected than in governing. Jacobs’s withdrawal raises the question that has become increasingly germane sincecaptured the G.O.P.
McMullin himself worked hard to persuade Utah Democrats not to stand their own candidate against Lee. By his count, he held more than a hundred events across the state and talked to more than a thousand Democratic delegates. “If you’re trying to build new coalitions politically, it’s best to start with values.
Utah may be the only state this cycle where Democrats are so unlikely to win a statewide election that they are willing to forgo running their own candidate, but it is not the only place where voters are searching for ways to overcome the threat that Trump-aligned politicians pose to democratic norms.
