UT-02: Nothing to See Here, Folks

Dan Jones & Associates for Deseret News/KSL-TV (5/13-19):

Jim Matheson (D-inc): 67

Bill Dew (R): 20

Undecided: 11

(MoE: ±7)

Matheson gets 93% of Dems, 77% of Indies, and 49% of Republicans.

Dew is notable only in the sense that he has self-funded his campaign to the tune of $250,000 (and raised $65).

NEXT.

Also of note: in nearby UT-03, Rep. Chris Cannon only leads former gubernatorial aide Jason Chaffetz by 39-37 in the GOP primary.

  1. No real shock really. The GOP basically gave up on Matheson in 2006. The only way we would have a chance against him is probably had we nominated my man Mitt. But Matheson will probably be safe, and then drawn into a more friendly district after Utah gains another house seat in 2012,.

  2. enough.  Gilchrest is gone.  Ramstad and Davis are retiring.  

    For the senate Hagel is retiring, (Depends on your definition I suppose) and we are gunning for Smith, Sununu, Collins, and Coleman.  

    I love this exile of moderate Republicans.  Democrats are the big tent party in Washington.  That is a sign that this is going to be a long lasting majority.
