Doug Owens announces he is taking on Mia Love again in 4th Congressional District | fox13now.com

After losing to incumbent Jim Matheson in 2012 by 768 votes, Mia Love was elected by a 4000+ vote margin over challenger Doug Owen in 2014. Owen announces that he will be back in 2016. My money is on Mia Love, both figuratively and literally.

Ummm...do politics in this district in Utah have some wider implications for the rest of this country?

Wow.. in 2014 Mia's money came overwhelmingly from out-of-state. Only 1,000 of her 19,000 contributors were from Utah.

"Republican congressional candidate Mia Love's hefty $1.5 million fundraising haul in the past three months includes contributions from more than 19,000 individual donors — including nearly 18,000 from outside Utah.

A Max donation for a meaningless district in a small state electorally? Seriously? For a congressional backbencher?
