AP Decision Notes: What to expect in Utah's state primaries

Utah voters will decide whether Sen. Mitt Romney’s brand of politics can still succeed in Republican primaries. Anti-Trump Republicans lost their standard-bearer in the Senate when Romney announced he wouldn’t seek a second term. Even before Romney announced he wouldn’t run again, former state House Speaker Brad Wilson formed an exploratory committee and Riverton Mayor Trent Staggs joined the primary. Both highlighted their support for former President Donald Trump. U.S. Rep. John Curtis has also entered the race and is widely seen as the candidate best positioned to win. Primary voters in Utah on Tuesday will also choose candidates of governor, U.S. House and state legislature.
