YES!!!

I don't swear often, but fuck you, #utgop! You changed the law to try to prevent the people you'd duped into signing from removing their names, and they paid the price of a stamp to do it anyway.

Prop 4 repeal fails to make 2026 ballot after Utah voters pull their signatures

A Republican-back effort to repeal Prop 4, Utah's anti-gerrymandering law, will fail to make the 2026 ballots after voters withdrew their signatures.

The Salt Lake Tribune

"{Utah Republican Party chair Rob} Axson has argued Prop 4, and the legal precedent it created, removed redistricting authority from accountable elected representatives."

Dear Rob, our elected #UTGOP representatives are fighting tooth and nail to be unaccountable—that's exactly why we need Prop 4.

"Researchers were able to make the bot spread vaccine conspiracy theories,"

That just sounds like #utgop.

I seriously wonder if the #utgop realizes that not getting the signatures to ask the voters to repeal a law with a 70%+ approval rating is a blessing in disguise. #utpol

FYI, #Utahns. #utgop got rid of our flouridated drinking water only so the FDA can take away our access to other good sources.

After Sowing Distrust in Fluoridated Water, Kennedy and Skeptics Turn to Obstructing Other Fluoride Sources

Florida and Utah have banned fluoridation, with multiple other states looking to do the same. Critics of fluoride in drinking water point to supplements as an alternative, but many are creating barriers to these very products.

Welp, that's done. The party is now a neo-fascist cult of personality built around a authoritarian con man, and there is no place in it for me. #utpol #utgop

Phil Lyman appeals to US Supreme Court to remove Gov. Cox from governor race

I knew Phil was quixotic but now he's proving to be nothing short of delusional. #utpol #utgop

At this point I'm only in the GOP to vote in primaries. The party mainstream is completely insane these days. #utpol #utgop https://www.sltrib.com/news/politics/2023/08/19/criminal-indictments-against/
Criminal indictments against Donald Trump are ‘political persecution,’ Utah GOP leaders say

Utah Republican Party leaders formally called the criminal indictments against former GOP president Donald Trump a "political persecution" during a State Central Committee meeting on Saturday.

The Salt Lake Tribune

When it comes to candidates for federal office, I have one very hard and fast requirement: you must believe in western liberal democracy. This means you subscribe to the idea that free and fair elections are inviolable, and anyone who attempts to subvert them through deceit, tampering, threats, or physical violence deserves to be subjected to the full force of the law.

The recent "debates" between Bruce Hough and Celeste Maloy have made one thing clear to me: both suffer from a serious and disqualifying case of brain worms about the former president. They are willing to rail on the many criminal charges filed against him, but also freely admit that they haven't bothered to even read what they are or consider if they are with merit. That's not the kind of person I want writing or voting on legislation, regardless of how many of my friends seem to be enthusiastic about Celeste Maloy.

In the Republican special primary election for CD2, I will be voting for Becky Edwards. She understands Trump as a criminal who attempted to overthrow the republic to avoid consequences coming due for his decades of committing crimes. I can't abide any member of Congress who denies this reality. #utpol #utgop

Since Becky Edwards is the only one without brain worms about TFG, I guess that's who I'm voting for in the primary. #utgop #utpol
