Show Notes

With just a few days left until the 2024 election, new poll numbers are painting a clearer picture of what we can expect in some key Utah races. Our panel examines what this all means in the race for president between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. And, will there be any surprises in the race for Utah governor?

The Utah County Clerk is facing scrutiny this week after it was revealed that his office was tracking the ballots of politicians. He also called for Lt. Gov. Deidre Henderson to be prosecuted for how the signature gathering process was handled earlier this year. We examine what this all means to confidence in elections, and how other state leaders are responding.

Plus, we discuss voter turnout and our panelists reveal which races they will be watching closely on election night.

In this episode, host Jason Perry is joined by Dennis Romboy, editor and reporter with the Deseret News — Holly Richardson, editor of Utah Policy — and Ben Winslow, politics reporter with Fox 13 News.
