Utah Rep. Blake Moore cruised to a quick primary election victory Tuesday evening over challenger Paul Miller, clinching the Republican nomination in Utah’s 1st Congressional District.
According to unofficial returns, the incumbent congressman received 72.58% of GOP votes to Miller’s 27.42%.
Moore, a second-term congressman representing northern Utah, was a heavy favorite coming into the race, despite finishing behind Miller — 55% to 45% — in the Republican state nominating convention. Miller, a first-time candidate, ran primarily on controlling the national debt and assailed Moore for his support for spending bills passed to avert government shutdowns.
