Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are tied in Utah, according to a new poll released on Wednesday. The Y2 Analytics poll, published first by Mormon church-owned Deseret News, found both Clinton and Trump at 26% among likely Utah voters, with independent Evan McMullin at 22% and Libertarian Gary Johnson at 14%.

My experience around Mormons, does lead me to believe Trumps boorish comments could indeed cost him Utah. The backlash there against his comments will certainly be more heightened then elsewhere.

If it does wind up a squeaker election, there is certainly an outside possibility that Utah could be the tipping point.

Now, personally I don't think it will be, but not taking Utah in the wake of the boorish comments, is not an unrealistic outcome....

Will be interesting to see what happens there in the coming weeks.

But the Holier Than Thou Mormons have no problem with Hillary.

Talk about idiots. There I said it.

BS.

Hillary isn’t campaigning in UT.

This poll is a joke.

My mother’s side of my family is entirely LDS. If they jump on this McMullin train and cost Trump the election...Thanksgiving is not going to be pleasant anymore.

This is reason #1 why I sometimes wish the US were not a superpower, and I did not have to take notice of this or any other presidential election.

To quote FM Lavrov: “Too many pussies around!”

There’s your first clue.
The Mormon church does not want the flow of illegal aliens interrupted.

Egg McMuffin is never going to get 22% in any state, not even in Utah.

If Mormons are that stupid that a “boorish comment” is worse than anything that hilLIARy or her reapist husband has done, then they should be banned from voting.

Nothing to worry about.

Utah only has 6 Electoral Votes.

Work for the big prizes, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Florida.

Folks, if you EVER needed absolute, undeniable PROOF that the polling data being released by the Media is absolute horse-puckey, this is it.

Its CNN. The same ones who said Hillary won the debate and were caught on video rigging a focus group poll.

Yes some Mormons are for open borders, That the issue. Not All Mormons are lock step with Bishop Romney and Beck.

Mormons are also big supporters of open borders and immigration to keep their cult populated.

6 EVs is huge in an already tight election. I don’t buy this BS poll for a second, but don’t dismiss 6 EVs

This election proves that all that we know about the nation, about the media, has gone off the rails of sanity.

Utah voting for Clinton would be like Lions Tigers and Bears going vegetarian. Sounds good (if you are a moron), but never gonna happen.

Could go to a third party and throw the election into the House for decision - that would be a fitting climax (is that too much like locker room talk for some people’s delicate ears?) for this crazy election.....
