About this episode
The effort to put a repeal of Utah's anti-gerrymandering rules on the ballot this year is on the verge of failing to qualify. Panelists Taylor Morgan and Leah Murray join Lindsay to weigh in on where the Prop 4 fight could go next, and what this whole saga says about the state of direct democracy in Utah. Plus, Senator John Curtis sponsors a bipartisan proposal to ban sites like Kalshi and Polymarket from offering lines on sports. It's the latest effort from an elected Utahn to rein in the emerging alternative to sportsbooks that remain illegal in states like Utah. But does the idea have the legs to pass both chambers of Congress, and does it strike the right balance when it comes to federalism?
