Andrew Adams reportingPresidential hopefuls are paying more attention to Utah as the state's primary nears.

Barack Obama's supporters in Utah say they're being told their candidate will make a stop here Feb. 2.

As for Hillary, we don't know that we'll ever see her here. But she already sent her husband, and campaigners say she's likely to send her daughter, Chelsea, before Super Tuesday.

On the Republican side, Mitt Romney told me in Iowa he wouldn't rule out a Utah visit before Feb. 5. And Mike Huckabee's supporters are launching his campaign here, with or without him. They're meeting Saturday at Doug & Emmy's in Layton.
