Utah GOP Senate Primary to Define Post-Romney Republicanism
Debates among four candidates spotlight the state's political future and Trump's influence.
- Rep. John Curtis, Riverton Mayor Trent Staggs, and former House Speaker Brad Wilson lead the race.
- Curtis, a moderate, faces off against Trump-endorsed Staggs and conservative Wilson.
- Romney remains neutral, wary of affecting the primary's outcome.
- Polls show Curtis as the favorite, but Staggs and Wilson are gaining support.
- The primary winner will likely secure victory in the general election in the heavily Republican state.
