Republican candidate Mia Love has won Utah's 4th Congressional District, becoming the first black Republican woman elected to Congress.
With 99 percent of precincts reporting, Love has 50 percent of the vote, against Democratic candidate Doug Owens with 47 percent. Owens has announced that he called Love to concede the race.
