Excellent!  I was really disappointed when Mia Love lost in 2012 – but now it looks like she's clinched the Republican nomination, and therefore likely the 2016 election for Utah's (conservative) 4th District.  She impressed me with her no-nonsense views, excellent communications skills, and a brain that's still working well (a few years in Washington might change that, dang it).  The 4th District is an odd-shaped district just south of the Great Salt Lake – not far from our new home in the 1st District.  Conservatives are making a big deal of the fact that she's a woman, and black – but I wish they'd make a big deal of her competence and small-government stance...
