My kids are currently 2 and 4. My youngest son had his first political experience when he was an infant and I strapped him to my torso so we could march in the blustery Women’s March.
One day, when they’re older, I imagine we’ll discuss Utah politics in depth, and included in those conversations will be the story of how Utah shifted from from a conservative state to a swing state. We’ll talk about how it was a shift that, ironically, was hastened by the conservative Legislature and their mishandling of the propositions that legalized medical cannabis, expanded Medicaid, and implemented fair redistricting practices.
