Utah Republicans voted against a candidate branded as a staunch critic of former President Donald Trump, nominating Celeste Maloy in a three-way GOP primary in a special election.
Wednesday’s results may indicate trouble for Sen. Mitt Romney , who has isolated himself from Republicans in his state by openly opposing Trump's campaign to win his party’s third consecutive presidential nomination.Romney has been hesitant to announce his Senate 2024 reelection plans, stating he expects to decide on whether or not to run by this fall. However, Maloy’s victory over former state Rep.
On the other hand, Romney made history as the first senator to vote to convict a president of his own party in an impeachment trial in Trump's first impeachment in February 2020. “One thing I admire about Mitt Romney is his commitment to follow his conscience,” Edwards told the Salt Lake Tribune. “I don’t think he is dictated to by political whims or pressures. And he’s very consistent in his approach. And I respect that.”
The GOP senator has been vocal about Trump’s many legal battles, speaking on his second indictment that Trump “brought these charges upon himself by not only taking classified documents, but by refusing to simply return them when given numerous opportunities to do so.”
