If you are looking for some consolation, you could say that if Jacob runs as an independent in the general election, he will syphon off enough votes to give the district to the dems.
Don't even say that! Can you imagine a democratic house member in Utah??? Please don't let that happen. It is bad enough fighting in blue and purple states much less the reddest state in the U.S.
They don't care who gets elected, they just want to defeat Cannon, or whoever else they are against.
