Utah is poised to join the growing list of states where President Joe Biden has fended off Democratic challengers.

And Beehive State Republicans chose former President Donald Trump for a sequel to 2020, beating Nikki Haley by 17 percentage points during a chaotic caucus night, according to early returns. 

After dealing with significant voting system issues on Super Tuesday night, March 5, the Utah GOP shared its first numbers around midnight. By early Wednesday morning, with 79% of precincts reporting, Trump led Haley 57.7% to 41.2%, Republicans reported.
