Kent County Republican Party cancels speech by Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman over his support of civil unions
"Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr., a rising Republican star and presidential aspirant, will not be speaking to the Kent County party faithful Saturday, after all.
Why? Two words: civil unions.
After reading in Sunday's Press that the Mormon governor of one of the country's reddest states supports civil unions for same-sex couples, Kent County Republican Party Chairman Joanne Voorhees pulled the plug.
In an e-mail sent to party members Monday, Voorhees said she canceled his appearance at a fundraiser Saturday morning after conducting further research on his positions on issues."
