Governor Herbert urging reconsideration of censure of Senator Romney

Governor Gary Herbert is urging leaders of the Utah Republican Party to reconsider its push to censure Senator Mitt Romney.

On Saturday, the Republican State Central Committee will take up a resolution to censure Romney for his impeachment vote against President Trump.

During his monthly news conference , Governor Herbert said he had his own misgivings about the President's style, but would vote for him in Utah's presidential primary.

He also expressed support for Romney's conscience-based vote, saying he did what Utahns expect of their elected officials.
