The upcoming Presidential election in the United States is highly anticipated, with the race between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris being closely watched in several swing states. While Utah is not typically considered a swing state, the battle for the White House has impacted major statewide and congressional races in the state.
Republican candidates in Utah have had to navigate their stance on President Trump in their campaigns, with the GOP nominee expected to win the state by a significant margin. Candidates, such as Rep. John Curtis running for Senate and Gov. Spencer Cox running for reelection, have incorporated their views on Trump into their campaigns.
Key races to watch in Utah include the U.S. Senate race between Curtis and Democratic candidate Caroline Gleich, the 3rd Congressional District race between state Sen. Mike Kennedy and Democratic candidate Glenn Wright, and the gubernatorial race between Gov. Cox and Democratic state Rep. Brian King. Third-party candidates and write-in candidates are also in the running in these races.
Polls show Trump leading Harris in Utah by a significant margin, with Curtis and Cox also leading in their respective races. Results are expected to be reported after all in-person voting is completed on Election Day, with the majority of Utah voters historically casting mail-in ballots. Voters still have the option to register at the polls on Election Day.
