    Municipal and Mayoral Races

    At the time of our conversation with Ben Nadolski, Ogden Mayoral Candidate it was a tight race between him and his opponent. Nadolski sheds some light on how the timeline change affected his campaign and what he plans to do first if he wins the seat. We also spoke to Cam Diehl, Director of Utah League of Cities and Towns to discuss his thoughts on the municipal results so far across the state.

    Election Night Closing Thoughts

    Update on SLC Olympic Bid

    We begin the second hour of the show talking about Salt Lake’s Olympic bid for 2034.

    Does the RNC Need Revamping?

    The KSL at Night hosts talk about the calls for a shake-up to the Republican National Committee. We’ve seen not only calls for the Chair to resign by Vivek Ramaswamy but also for the organization to stop hosting National GOP debates by Former President Donald Trump. If the RNC were to stop hosting GOP debates, how would that affect voters’ discernment process for candidates of their party? Tune in!

    Third-Party Candidates Threaten to Disrupt

    We have one confirmed independent candidate in Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and another potential independent in Senator Joe Manchin, both close to different sides of the aisle. Would the effect of both of these independents running cancel each other out? Which straight-ticket party would suffer more as a result of the candidacy of these independents?

    Thanksgiving Traditions

    Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and families across the U.S. will gather around the table to spend time together. Our hosts discuss their Thanksgiving traditions and how they cook their turkeys. We also give farewell to KSL at Night producer Carlos Artiles Fortun.
