Bee Cause Of You!

Still a dork. Romney will now have to fight for the nomination.
Utah Republicans see right through him.

His move to Holladay, Utah wasn't well received. 

Former 2012 presidential candidate Mitt Romney thought he was going to get an easy ride. The race for the nomination is going to be more difficult.

Utah state representative Mike Kennedy forced Romney into a primary. 
Mitt Romney lost to a bigger dork than him. Mike Kennedy, a state representative from Utah forced Romney into a primary fight.
Romney was hoping to secure the nomination at the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Republican Orin Hatch. The primary will be a real challenge for a candidate who lost the presidential campaign twice and a bid for the senate.

Romney ran for the U.S. senate in Massachusetts in 1994 and lost.

He spent time growing the equity firm Bain Capital before running for governor of Massachusetts. He only served one term as governor and was instrumental in passing affordable healthcare in the state.

Romney was instrumental in bringing the winter Olympics to the state.

He won the endorsement of Donald Trump in 2012 as a presidential candidate. Romney denounced Trump as a presidential candidate in 2016 and called him a phony. He said that Trump will be an embarrassment to Republicans.

Now as a candidate for the senate, Romney begged for Trump's support and got it. He said that he will support Trump regardless.

Trump is not well liked in the Republican leaning state. Romney is the so called frontrunner in the nomination. He also has a huge lead in a match up against the Democratic nominee.

Rep. Mia Love (R-UT) didn't run. Jason Chaffetz chose not to run.

Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) hasn't endorsed either candidate.

To win the Utah Republican Convention, a candidate must secure 60% of the delegates to win the nomination. Kennedy held on with 50% of the vote while Romney came in second with 49%. This was in the second round of delegate count.
Jenny Wilson, Democrat running for Utah Senate. Born and raised.
Now Kennedy and Romney will duke it out. On June 30th, one will emerge as the nominee to take on Salt Lake City official Jenny Wilson.

Hopefully this will be a brutal fight and the winner will end up bruised and weaken. Hopefully we can put another L on Romney's belt.

Wilson is from Salt Lake City. She is running on a moderate platform. She isn't talking too much about Trump. She wants to stay focused on issues like healthcare, Native American rights, gun reform legislation, protecting water resources and bipartisanship.

Romney will be regarded as a carpetbagger and an opportunist. He is a perennial candidate and failure.

Let's have peanut butter and honey sandwiches in honor of Mittens.

Let the flipper flop.
