Utah holds a special U.S. House election for the Third District on November 7, 2017. The Tribune-Hinckley Institute Poll released October 18 shows these results: Republican 46%; Democratic 19%; United Utah 9%; Libertarian 3%; Independent American 2%; other and undecided 20%.
Candidate/Member replacement lists during election/term.
NO more low low low turnouts and high costs in special elections.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this ended up like the last Senate election, where the Democrat gets third place or below, under a third party. As long as the United Utah numbers stay up, anyway.
Oct 19, 1781 —
After 6.5 long years of death and injury (from 19 Apr 1775 – Battles of Lexington and Concord, Mass.) the USA-France forces defeated a large Brit force at Yorktown, VA.
The EVIL Brit regime of the TYRANT George III and his gangsters got the news leading to an armistice and later 1783 USA-Brit Peace Treaty.
American casualties may have been percentage worse than during the horrific Civil War in 1861-1865 —
lots of dead/injured teens/20s men — esp. in the Brit death ships for USA prisoners in New York (think Hitler death camps).
Some Americans would fight the TYRANT George III and his gang again in the War of 1812 (-1815) – notably Andrew Jackson – later USA Prez.
IE – the cost to be free and have the right to vote.
It’s semi-annoying you can’t edit posts. I meant the last Alaska U.S. Senate election, where the Democratic nominee got fourth place under the Libertarian and an independent.
9% is pretty impressive, especially for a party as young as United Utah.
Should be interesting to see how well the United Utah Party does. They’re off to a good start with 9%.
I think they’ll get 5%.
