Huntsman Nixes Write-In Campaign

Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman (R) said he will not be running for governor as a write-in candidate “even with an independent group of staunch supporters striving to keep him in contention following his narrow primary loss,” the Salt Lake Tribune reports.

Said Huntsman: “While we appreciate the continued enthusiasm from supporters throughout the state, especially after a very tight race, we won’t be pursuing any efforts for a write-in campaign.”
