Cox and Romney did not show up.
The Lieutenant governor got a lackluster response.
Maybe we are getting somewhere. Hearing lots of people saying this being nice stuff is BS.

Awesome. Pls. keep us posted.
This state has alot of rinos.
The bad part is that a motion for paper ballots has not gone anywhere yet. They want us to use these stupid electronic clickers.
I am here too. Definitely feeling that delegates are angry and want real change.
"Being nice" is code for, "I am in the Uni-Party and can't attack the other side."
That is the only reason Republicans play nice when they have control. People are waking up to it.
That's exactly how I interpret "I can work with people."
Bingo. Also, "working across the aisle" is another one.
A good half the delegates there were first timers.
Mike Lee won by some 75% in a blowout. His closest opponent was Becky Edwards.
By weird Utah voting rules, Becky Edwards can still be on the primary ballot through signature gathering. However she won't have the official GOP sanctioned support.
Andrew Badger (US Congressional District 1) came within a hair's breadth of that magic 60% to get official GOP sanctioned support. He is going to primary over the incumbent Blake Moore.
Chris Stewart, US Congressional District 2, won by nearly 80% blowout over his RINO opponent Erin Ryder. He drove the knife in when he mentioned in his speech that she voted for Biden in 2020. That was a no-brainer. I don't know if Erin will have the gall to continue calling herself a Republican after that.
(US Congressional District 3) Jason Preston, who had Roger Stone attending one of his campaign events, didn't make it, despite the thunderous applause he got. John Curtis (a RINO) came out with the most votes but didn't get 60%. He is being primaried by Chris Herrod, the runner up. Don't know anything about him.
CD4 Burgess Owens won by some 70%. Opponent Jake Hunsaker strikes me a a technocrat wannabe. He also gathered sigs so may try to be on the primary ballot.
So despite the "love" shown at the convention for some of these candidates, it ain't over yet.
