Hooley-measure equidistribution conjecture for polynomial roots modulo primes

Let fZ[X]f\in\mathbf{Z}[X] be a monic irreducible polynomial of degree at least 22. For each prime pp, let ϱf(p)\varrho_f(p) be the number of roots of ff modulo pp, and let Δp\Delta_p be the uniform probability measure on those roots. Hooley-measure equidistribution conjecture. The measures

1π(x)px\pQϱf(p)Δp\frac{1}{\pi(x)}\sum_{\substack{p\leqslant x\p\in\mathcal{Q}}}\varrho_f(p)\Delta_p

converge to the uniform measure as x+x\to+\infty. This is the natural conjecture using Hooley's measures; the source notes that it was stated elsewhere and gives no resolution here.
