Donald Trump has slipped to fourth place among Utah Republicans in the presidential contest following his controversial statements on Muslims being allowed into the U.S., a new UtahPolicy poll finds.

Registered Republicans Only : 356 Voters MOE 5.19 - Cruz 20, Carson 18, Rubio 18, Trump 12 no one else listed.
Mormons don't like Trumps personality, but he doesn't drink or smoke. Interesting

Well, the LDS did wonders for the GOP with Romney.

IMHO Cruz will pickup most of the Carson votes. Trump will get the rest. What we don’t know yet is where the bottom is for Carson. I’m betting about 5%. And then he’s outta here.

Big news! LDS I don’t agree with Theologically, but they are conservatives that I am happy to ally with. They are social, and many fiscal conservatives as well.

(Romney’s biggest problem, IMO wasn’t that he was Mormon-it’s that he was an Establishment RINO that wasn’t interested in taking the fight to Obama the WAY HE NEEDED TO).

That 11% OTHER must be for Romney. There were 17 $%^# candidates, and 11% choose OTHER?!

Hatch (and Flake and Dingy Harry) give Mormons a bad name. Mormons I know wonder why the Mormon Church hasn’t excommunicated Dingy Harry.

Hopefully, Cruz doesn't have the same whack-job ideology of his dad.

Chart says MOE is +/- 3.93%, so where do you come up with 5.19? Either way, this poll says it’s a dead heat in Utah with Cruz “tied” with “Don’t Know!”

Remember that conservative sites have been swamping the country for the past week or so with Cruz walks on water articles, always really hitting Trump. He hasn’t been to Utah yet.

Cruz is the definition of insanity.

Giving the establishment another one to knock off before they put their guy in. It’s like freakin’ Ground Hog Day, 2012 every election.

They have Mike Lee as a senator. Lee knocked out the RINO that was there. Lee is THE number one conservative senator. He even scores higher than Ted Cruz on Conservative Review. I wonder if trump is 4th because of some perception he’s not a true conservative? I think the comments about Mozlems have little to do with it.

If Trump doesn’t take Utah, it’s not going to hurt him much at all.

Hatch just needs to go ahead and switch parties.
