Utah GOP Votes Against Censure of Romney Over Impeachment Votes
The Utah Republican Party voted narrowly on May 1 against censuring Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) for his votes to convict former President Donald Trump on impeachment charges in 2020 and 2021.
According to a final tally shared by KUTV reporter Michael Locklear, 711 delegates to the Utah GOP’s organizing convention voted to censure Romney, while 798 voted against.
The U.S. Senate acquitted Trump at the conclusion of both trials. Romney was the only Republican to vote for impeachment during the first trial, and was one of seven Republicans to do so in the second impeachment trial.
