James Evans, state chair of the Republican Party, recently spoke to Utah’s Republican state legislators, and asked them to introduce a bill when the legislature convenes next year to move the June primary to a later month.

Utah primaries have very few candidates running in them, because in Utah, qualified parties first hold endorsement conventions, and the only people who can run in primaries are those who had substantial support at the convention. Most partisan offices in Utah are settled at the conventions.
