KT McFarland
Republican candidate for the Senate seat won by Hillary Rodham Clinton in 2006. She was deputy assistant secretary of defense for public affairs at The Pentagon from 1982 to 1985 under President Ronald Reagan and speech writer to Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger.

UT State Rep. Carl Wimmer
Carl Wimmer is the everyday man who works hard to support and raise his young family. He comes from a humble background where his parents did their best to make ends meet, keep food on the table, and to instill honorable values in their children. Carl was raised the second youngest of six siblings in West Valley City; his mother a homemaker and his father a laborer at Kennecott. With an extremely tight budget and no money for extracurricular activities, the young Carl chose to become a Golden Gloves boxer and later, a weightlifter. He began competing in heavy power lifting in 1999 and won his first world title in 2002. To this day he boasts a record 553 pounds in the bench press. Carl is not independently wealthy and understands the value of a single dollar. He lives on a budget and believes the government should too. He doesn’t have the privilege of boasting an expensive degree from an established University, rather his experience comes from lessons learned on the streets and achieved through life’s opportunities, growing his own business and by having great mentors. Never has Carl allowed others to distract him from setting and achieving, what they believe are unattainable goals. His message is clear: anything you put your mind to, and commit to achieve, is attainable. When Carl first ran for office, he committed himself to staying true to a core set of governing principles of which included honesty, smaller government, upholding the Constitution, and representing family values. He has based his voting record and leadership upon such principles and has continuously fought to preserve individual liberties and make conservative decisions. His track record consists of principled votes, fighting to bring government closer to the people by uniting citizens and legislators in common goals, defending the tax payer, representing traditional family values, and leading the movement against the overarching reach of the federal government.
