Mia Love, Ben McAdams running neck and neck in money chase as Utah’s hottest campaign gears up for stretch drive

Heading into the homestretch of their close 4th District congressional race, GOP Rep. Mia Love and Democratic Salt Lake County Mayor are essentially tied in the amount of cash they have amassed.

A recent Salt Lake Tribune-Hinckley Institute of Politics poll showed Love leads McAdams by 6 percentage points, and theirs is the only close major race in the state in advance of the Nov. 6 general election.

She took in $1.02 million in the past quarter and spent $722,000. During this two-year election cycle, she has amassed $3.3 million and spent $2.6 million.

McAdams gathered $620,000 during the quarter and spent $235,000.
