YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Utah 1st Congressional District Democratic candidate Ben McAdams joins Utah Political Watch for a wide-ranging interview ahead of the June 23 primary election.

McAdams, a former state senator, Salt Lake County Mayor, and one-term congressman, makes his case for why his track record on delivering results sets him apart from his three primary opponents.

We discuss his take on finishing second at the state Democratic convention, the tension between his centrist brand and a more progressive primary base, his financial disclosure showing ownership stakes in AI data center companies, his opposition to the Stratos data center in Box Elder County, how he'd approach oversight of the Trump administration, and the issues he says have been ignored under Utah's previous gerrymandered congressional map, including the proposed ICE detention center on Salt Lake City's west side.
