The Party Leadership disallowing questions from the delegates to the candidates in this venue was unconscionable.

If accurately quoted, Maryanne Davis, Utah County Republican Committee member's statement that "We just want to keep the meeting all about the issues," was completely disingenuous.

How are the delegates to make an informed vote without dialogue?

How can there be dialogue without questions?

This "thinking for the delegates" mentality is unbelieveable and unacceptable. Either open up the debate and the inquiry, or don't hold a sham event.

The the Thought Police have finally made it to the Utah County GOP. This is the same self-righteous people that believe they love religion, country and constitution more than any of us. Now they give us this.

They are going to decide what we can hear to base what we vote for. I will be donating money to this Chance Williams guy just out of principle. Morley should resign. If the only way he can win office is by having his thugs control speech, Morley should go get elected in Cuba or something.

Seems to be a little power play going on in the fair area. Nothing new for a political party that has been in office too long. The chosen have been chosen and the peasants should just bow accordingly.

I think that Mike Morley has had alot of negative attention in the media. It doesn't matter what he does they are going to say he has a hidden agenda. I stand behind him.

I know Mike Morley personally and professionally and would have to say that he is the best person for the job.

I agree that Rep. Mike Morley has received alot of negative attention. I think he represents us as a community the best. I love what he stands for and his values.

I will be voting for Mike Morley. It is so nice to see that other people are still standing behind him too.
