Cannon has been forced into a primary. His opponent pulled 52 percent of the delegate votes at the Utah State Republican convention to Cannon's 48 percent. It doesn't mean Cannon is out, but it does mean he's in the race of his life. Cannon represents the most conservative district in the most conservative state in the nation. The Democrat candidate will have no chance of knocking off the Republican candidate in the general election, whoever that might be. Thus the primary election in July will determine whether Cannon returns to DC or he is replaced by his Republican opponent. Primary elections are sparsely attended in Utah and turn on which candidate's "machine" is most diligent in getting its zealots to the polls. Cannon may have met his match.
Cannon voted for HR4437. Cannon has a perfect 100% ACU rating in 2004 and 2005.
Whats the problem?
