Republicans hold a supermajority in both houses of the Utah Legislature, and there won't be much drama in this year's Utah House and Senate races.
91 seats are on the November ballot, but fewer than a dozen elections could be considered competitive.
I looked at several factors to determine which legislative races are worth your attention on election night.
2022 margin of victory.
Several races decided by a few hundred votes in 2022 are expected to have razor-thin winning margins again this year.
2020 presidential and gubernatorial election results.
Two of the legislative seats on our list were carried by Republicans Donald Trump and Spencer Cox in 2020 but are currently held by Democrats.
There is one district currently in the GOP column that was carried by Democrat Joe Biden in 2020.
Three districts on the list split their tickets in 2020, voting for both Biden and Cox.
Which U.S. Senate candidate carried the district in 2022?
Nine of the legislative seats on our list were carried by unaffiliated candidate Evan McMullin over Mike Lee in 2022. Seven of those are held by Republicans.
