(16,616 posts)2. No. I am having trouble keeping up with everything that is happening lately.
Now I'm looking into Spencer Cox, his opponent who won, who I know nothing about.

(16,616 posts)4. This is kind of interesting. It's from Spencer Cox's Wikipedia page:
Of Donald Trump, the front-runner, Cox said: "We care a lot about decorum. We care about our neighbors. We are a good, kind people. He does not represent neither goodness nor kindness."[16] He said he would not support Trump if he wins the Republican nomination: "I think he's disingenuous. I think he's dangerous. I think he represents the worst of what our great country stands for.... I won't vote for Hillary, but I won't vote for Trump, either."[17]
On June 13, 2016, Cox spoke at a vigil in Salt Lake City honoring those who died in the Orlando nightclub shooting the day before. He surprised many when he apologized for mistreating schoolmates and his lack of support for the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender community.[18][19] He aimed part of his speech at the "straight community":[20]
