SALT LAKE CITY — Mitt Romney became the instant front-runner when he announced his U.S. Senate campaign last week, as a new poll shows him with a commanding lead four days into the race.

A Utahpolicy.com poll released Tuesday shows 60 percent of Utahns would vote for the former Massachusetts governor among declared and possible candidates for the office. Only Democratic Salt Lake County Councilwoman Jenny Wilson polled in double digits, with a meager 14 percent.

Libertarian Craig Bowden and Rep. Dan McCay, R-Riverton, who has not entered the race, fared the best among the rest at 3 percent and 2 percent, respectively.

The Dan Jones & Associates poll surveyed 609 registered voters Feb. 9-16. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percent.

Trust me, Utah, I'll repeal Obamacare, be tough on illegal immigration, cut spending, ban abortion and appoint conservative judges. I'll also give you a great deal on a used Chevy.

Why in the world must Utahns pick the Used Car Salesman just because he’s a Mormon?

Respectfully including Jeff Head for insight.

A 71-year-old billionaire with 30 grandchildren should have something better to do than be a freshman senator.

The GOP is the stupid Party.

Only because of stupid voters.

He’s a Deep State Socialist operative. He’s there to destroy the Trump agenda. After all, he worked hard to elect Zero in 2008 and 2012 and recruited Egg McMuffin to sabotage Trump and elect Hillary. Defeating this treasonous pig is of paramount importance.

He’ll be an undocumented Democrat in an R jersey, opposing all efforts to secure the border and remove illegal aliens.

While it looks bleak maybe enough people in Utah have awoken and Romney gets a tough challenger in the primaries. Romney is a national embarrassment and hopefully that continues to stick.

He gets 60% of vote. About the same percentage he will vote for the Trump agenda...

You have learned. It's the 60% of Utah voters who are stuck on stupid.

One would think we’d learn.

You know, when Jimmy Carter was elected Americans were only trying to elect a God fearing believer. Even Bill Clinton made himself look like a good church going southern boy.

We've been falling for the trick for a long time.

Dan Jones polls are some of the most unreliable I’ve ever seen. And that’s saying something.

No one is going to be able to beat him in Utah, period. Doesn’t matter how conservative or not he is. Mormons will dutifully vote for him en masse...

He wants to be a senator so he can layoff millions of people instead of thousands as he stripped companies of assets.
