A nemesis of Navajo Nation President Kelsey Begaye was endorsed on Wednesday.

A school board in Utah voted 3-1 to keep the Red Devil mascot of Springville High School. Begaye had urged the mascot be rejected, saying the Devil was offensive to Native Americans.

In a non-binding referendum, students, faculty and community members overwhelmingly supported the Devil.
