Utah House Speaker Brad Wilson launches 2024 Senate bid to replace retiring Mitt Romney

Utah House Speaker Brad Wilson has formally entered the 2024 race for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Mitt Romney.
Wilson is expected to campaign as a conservative, contrasting himself with the more moderate Romney.
Wilson has already raised over $2 million for his Senate bid, including $1.2 million of his own money.
Several other lesser-known Republicans have also entered the race to replace Romney.
Wilson is considered the frontrunner, given his name recognition and support among Utah lawmakers.
