Primary Candidates-2018-State Delegate T. Dougall

Here is the opinion of State Delegate, Troy Dougall:

For the State Races of US Senate and US House, District 3:

I'm supporting Romney largely because the Senate is a close-knit body built on personal relations and I think Mitt has worked with, campaigned for, and fundraised for nearly every Republican Senator, therefore I think he will be more effective at pushing through choice policy than any normal senator.

For Curtis the main thing I would say is that he is by far the most accountable and accessible person in Utah’s delegation and likely more accessible and accountable than the heavy majority of Representatives. Most people may vote a certain way hoping that 2 years down the line they’ll have other accomplishments to campaign on to mask the bad vote and that people will largely forget the bad vote. For John if he has a bad vote, he’s going to be facing voters in a week or two and will have to explain himself. This, naturally, largely prevents him from bad voting and raises his level of accountability to the people. 

Troy is familiar with some of the County races and their candidates, and this is his opinion on those, even though he was not elected to vote in those races at Convention.

I would recommend Jared Carman over Brady Brammer.

I honestly like both Mike Smith and Jim Phelps but I've gotten multiple opportunities to talk to Jim Phelps in a friendly/non-political manner and he is extremely nice. 

I absolutely recommend Chad Grunander for County Attorney. I've been able to talk to him a lot (he lives in John Curtis's ward actually) and it sounds like he is the most experienced and has had an extensive history prosecuting high level crimes like homicide and drug trafficking.
