Race to replace Mitt Romney in Utah gains steam as another candidate jumps in: He 'sold us out'
Fox News
Rod Bird, Jr., the mayor of Roosevelt, Utah, is the latest Republican candidate to join the race to replace retiring Sen. Mitt Romney in what is expected to be a crowded field.
"When Romney ran, he campaigned on conservative values and gave a lot of people in our state hope," Bird said "Many believed he would fight for us, but in many ways he sold us out and didn’t keep his word." Lacey Christ is a producer with "Fox News @ Night."
Bird — who has served as Roosevelt's mayor since 2018 — says he hopes to run a campaign based on the "spirit of small-town values" and "principles of individualism, limited government, and freedom."
