Republican Congressional Hopeful Blames Troubles on the Devil

quote[Republican congressional hopeful John Jacob believes the devil is impeding his efforts to unseat five-term Rep. Chris Cannon.

"There's another force that wants to keep us from going to Washington, D.C.," Jacob told The Salt Lake Tribune. "It's the devil is what it is. I don't want you to print that, but it feels like that's what it is."

Jacob faces Cannon in Tuesday's primary election following a campaign battle that has focused on immigration. Cannon has supported a guest-worker program and Jacob has opposed it.

In other developments Thursday, Jacob denied having had a gambling addiction and acknowledged misstating the number of illegal immigrants at the state prison in Gunnison.]
