Once again, Burgess Owens has shown why he is unfit to represent Utahns living in the fourth Congressional district. He still hasnt adequately answered questions of alleged plagiarism or his relationship to Q-Anon. Now, we find out Owens has followed the example of his GOP predecessor, refusing to play by the rules and holding on to a substantial amount of illegal campaign contributions with only a week until the election.
If voters cant trust a candidate to honestly follow laws and regulations during their campaign, there is no reason to believe that voters can trust that person once in office.
