Show Notes

2024 has proven to be a busy year in the world of politics. From a tumultuous presidential election on the national stage to some decisive policy shifts here at home — our expert panel dives into the major headlines and their impact.

Utah Sen. Mitt Romney's term ends in just a few days. We explore the impact of his time in the Senate, what he accomplished for Utah, and what his legacy will be.

We also discuss one of the biggest political stories of the year — how the Utah Republican Party's convention winners largely did not end up winning their primary elections. What does this say about politics in the state? And what does it mean for future elections?

Host Jason Perry is joined by Maura Carabellow, president of the Exoro Group — Doug Wilks, the executive editor of the Deseret News — and Max Roth, an anchor with Fox 13 News.

Funding for The Hinckley Report is made possible in part by Merit Medical and by the financial contributions of PBS Utah members. If you would like to support the work we do, please visit pbsutah.org/supporthinckley.
