"I think there was some very negative campaigning that went on and there was a national frustration with Republicans. I do believe it trickled down into Utah," Curtis said. "And clearly, I have some constituents that are probably frustrated with me. I have to accept some of that responsibility."Curtis, who has already been re-elected House Speaker by his colleagues, said winning by such a small margin likely would affect his influence in the Legislature.
"Obviously, as speaker this is probably the closest race that a sitting speaker has had, at least in my political memory," said Curtis.

Mr. Seegmiller is 10 times the man that Greg Curtis is. Please run one more time, Jay. You WILL prevail!
Better to love a short man than never to love a tall.
Says Curtis: "negative campaigning that trickled down to Utah"
Ahem... I don't think so, Mr. Cuertis. Jay Seegmiller worked his arse off! That's what trickled down...
Oh and by the way, isn't the republican party the group that likes to talk about personal responsibility? So quit blaming this very close race on the national democrats. Seegmiller is *close* because he has worked for it. I hope there is a recount and I hope he prevails. He deserves it more than any other politician in Utah.
Greg Curtis is the MAN!
