DeMint Statement on Utah Senate Race
Alexandria, VA — Today, U.S. Senator Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina), chairman of the Senate Conservatives Fund, made the following statement regarding the Republican nomination of Mike Lee for U.S. Senate in Utah.

"I want to congratulate Mike Lee on his victory today," said Senator DeMint. "Mike came from behind to win this race because of his unwavering support for the Constitution and the principles of freedom. Mike was the target of some very malicious campaign attacks, but he kept his focus on fighting for Utah families and prevailed.

"I also want to thank the thousands of grass roots conservatives in Utah and around the country who worked so hard to make this possible. Because of their efforts, Mike Lee will join a growing list of new Republicans in the Senate who will fight to take our country back."

The Senate Conservatives Fund (SCF) is a political action committee dedicated to electing strong conservatives to the U.S. Senate. SCF often backs underdog candidates who are overlooked by the Washington establishment. Besides Mike Lee, SCF is also backing Sharron Angle in Nevada, Ken Buck in Colorado, Rand Paul in Kentucky, Marco Rubio in Florida, and Pat Toomey in Pennsylvania.
