Does Snow have any future in SLC politics? It's a shame that the first Trans nominee for US Senate is a sacrificial land who likely has no political career ahead of her.
Mayor of SLC, City Council in SLC, possibly even a state legislator in SLC (all of our LGBT legislators have come from extremely liberal SLC neighborhoods). No future outside of that tiny bubble.
As a side note, an openly gay state senator (Jim Dabakis) currently represents the area where the LDS Church has its headquarters. And of course SLC, with its openly gay mayor, is the city where the headquarters is located. I think the city councilor is even Derek Kitchen, the hero of the LGBT side in Utah's fight about same-sex marriage.
And no, no Democrat is beating Lee, not even Matheson. Lee's been able to crush any establishment Republican opposition, so there's no challenge from that quarter either. We'll probably just send up more sacrificial lambs against him, as usual.
