Utah Dems Pick First Transgender Senate Candidate

Utah Democratic voters nominated on Tuesday the first-known transgender U.S. Senate candidate ever for a major party. Misty Snow will challenge incumbent Republican Sen. Mike Lee in November. Snow and Misty Plowright, a transgender woman who on Tuesday claimed the Democratic nomination in Colorado's 5th House District, are the two first transgender people to run for Congress. The 30-year-old Snow said on Tuesday, "A lot of people have told me whether I win or lose, I'm already making a difference just by running."
