Latter-day Saints women distance themselves from Arizona Republican candidate
Original: Latter-day Saints women turn away from scandal-plagued Republican candidate in Arizona https://www.npr.org/2026/10/04/nx
Mormon women in Arizona are reportedly withdrawing support from Mark Lamb, a Republican House candidate whose campaign has been dogged by scandal. NPR reports the shift within the Latter-day Saints community, where voters traditionally lean Republican, suggesting moral concerns are outweighing party loyalty for many women in the state's closely watched congressional race.
Why now: A scandal is causing a traditionally reliable religious voting bloc to abandon a Republican candidate in a competitive Arizona race.
