Republicans in Utah are calling for the censure of Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) after he and six other Republicans joined Democrats in voting to convict former President Donald Trump.

Trump was acquitted because the vote count fell short of the threshold for a conviction, but the Republicans who voted against him are facing backlash from within the party.
