Mia Love Jumps Ahead of McAdams

November 16, 2018 · 8:29 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Rep. Mia Love (R-UT) is winning her re-election for the first time since Election Day after an updated vote count in Utah County pushed her narrowly over challenger Ben McAdams (D), the Salt Lake Tribune reports.

“Love is currently ahead by 419 votes, reversing Thursday’s 1,002-vote lead for McAdams, who has spent the past week in Washington going to House orientation meetings and appearing in the freshman class photo with new lawmakers from across the country.”
