the jazz. true? mine, i may or may not have once or twice, yes. but, yeah, no. i know this place pretty well. you couldn t afford a ticket because most people can t to the all-star game in 93. now you own the jazz. could you talk about what that moment means? first of all, it s a huge moment for the state. and i think it s a great timing because utah s unbelievably just on fire right now. and for me as a kid to be here and have, like, our team and be such a big fan and to be back here with the jazz, with our representation, and just watch the state rallying. there are so many people that want to be here, who come to utah. it s a good moment to shine. you actually think utah gotten a bad rap. your words, not mine, a horrible job in branding. what do people get wrong with about this state? i just think that the state i think i read that quote.

women s rights glroups, lgbtq groups that are supporting him. we have the latino and black leadership in the state rallying. i guess one of the main concerns is whether latinos will come out and vote. historically they ve done that in presidential elections, but their voting has fallen below in off-year elections like this one, and so there s a lot of spanish language ads out there. they re doing everything they can to get all aspects of the party. it s kind of a multi-facetted base of support for newsom. so they re trying to hit on all cylinders. well, look, dramatic times in california. we ll be watching and, phil, we thank you for sharing your reporting on this. thank you. expanded jobless benefits set to expire today. what this means for millions of americans who desperately need help. liberty mutual customizes car insurance
