YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The four Democrats running in Utah's brand new First Congressional District—Ben McAdams, State Senator Nate Blouin, Liban Mohamed, and Michael Farrell—met Wednesday night for the first and only televised debate before the June 23rd primary. I break it all down.

McAdams entered as the frontrunner, and, frankly, he just needed to not lose. He didn't.

The three progressives—Blouin, Mohamed, and Farrell—all had two jobs: stop McAdams AND stop each other. None of them pulled it off.

We cover:

→ The debate format problems (again)

→ The best and worst questions of the night

→ Fireworks on healthcare and data centers

→ The Blouin vs. Mohamed "white privilege" accusation that was mysteriously left off the livestream

→ McAdams' data center stock disclosure

→ The Bluen poll stunt—and why it was a stunt

→ What this all means heading into the final weeks

Ballots drop next week. This was everyone's last shot.
