SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Two Utah gubernatorial candidates whose campaigns were stymied by the coronavirus crisis have ended legal pushes to get on the primary ballot. The Salt Lake Tribune reports developer Jan Garbett ended her lawsuit over the weekend. The Republican had argued that the state didn’t do enough to accommodate the difficulties created by the pandemic, which canceled large gatherings and made door knocking nearly impossible. Fellow Republican and Provo businessman Jeff Burningham had joined her push. The end of the lawsuit means four candidates will appear on the GOP primary ballot in the race to replace GOP Gov. Gary Herbert, who is not running again.
