OverviewIn this Sunday Edition: a conversation with the Republican candidates vying for the job of Utah Attorney General. We'll give Sean Reyes and John Swallow the chance to make their case to voters and discuss each candidate's vision for the office. Plus in this week's political talk-back, a closer look at outside money in Utah politics and if there should there be more transparency.

Segments 1 & 2

The state Attorney General is the state's chief law enforcement officer and chief legal advisor. Republicans John Swallow and Sean Reyes both want the job and joined us to make their case to voters. We presented a brief biography about each candidate but made an error: Sean Reyes practiced at Parsons Behle & Latimer for 14 years and was a partner at the firm for seven of those years. We incorrectly stated he was a partner for all 14 years.

Segment 3

Taking part in this week's political talk-back, Dennis Romboy and Lisa Riley Roche with the Deseret News and Brian Schott from Utah Policy. This week Utah Policy did some polling on what political insiders think about outside groups funding ads and mailers.
