Does anyone think the @GOP will have the intelligence to realize that their own party members don't support what they are doing or not? Remember the collective bargaining bill. The biggest initiative inUtah history. Do you think they r capable of understanding they do not represent Utah Republicans
Prop 4 fails to make the ballot after 327 more voters remove their signatures in critical Senate District 15. All told, about 1,000 people removed their signatures in SD15 and roughly 9,000 have done so statewide.

Utah lawmakers want to yank control of high school sports from the private UHSAA and move it inside a brand new state office.

Price tag: Nearly $1 million per year.

The move could inject partisan politics into Friday Night Lights.
