Utah GOP Rep. Mia Love conceded the 4th District race to Ben McAdams on Monday after a lengthy vote counting process following the Nov. 6 midterm. Love then criticized President Donald Trump for his post-Election Day remarks saying that she lost because she didn’t support him. Love also called out the GOP’s failure to make genuine connections with minority voters and politicians — saying this was a reason Republicans lost so many seats this year. Love is the first black woman elected to Congress as a Republican.
