Mia Love says she's poised to run again, none of Republicans in race so far can beat McAdams

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Mia Love said she's ready to run again in Utah's 4th Congressional District unless a Republican she deems strong enough to beat Democratic Rep. Ben McAdams enters the race.

"There isn't anyone that I believe can win right now," Love told the Deseret News Friday in a lengthy interview about the 4th District race that also touched on her frustrations with President Donald Trump likely being at the top of the GOP ticket.

McAdams, the only Democrat in Utah's congressional delegation, won by less than 700 votes, defeating Love's bid for a third term in the district that includes portions of Salt Lake and Utah counties.

Love said while there are at least three possible candidates she could support in the 4th District, none of them have decided to get in the race. Those who have, she said, don't have the ability to successfully take on the former Salt Lake County mayor.
