After countless hours of volunteering to attend and listen to candidates running for an opportunity to be elected to serve this great state, I attended the Utah GOP state convention. Already many hours into the event, Gov. Spencer Cox took the stage for his re-election campaign speech.
Gov. Spencer Cox gets a mixed reaction at the Utah Republican Nominating Convention in Salt Lake City on Saturday, April 27, 2024.
Facing the 4,000 volunteer state delegates, visitors and campaign staff, he was met with a mix of applause and boos from the crowd. I, nor any of the people sitting in my section, booed the governor. Gov.
Nevertheless, instead of insulting the entire body of delegates gathered to protect what they value and believe in, a bit of understanding, accountability, patience and the ability to “disagree better” was needed! As the governor stated following the investigation of the women’s volleyball incident: “Part of that requires patience — something I could have done better in this.”May’s flavorful finds: Chef Jeff’s budget-friendly delights at Smith’sGordon Monson: Vision, a love of Utah, winning — Ryan Smith’s ‘three bingos’ for NBA and NHL success
