I thought Trump wasn’t supposed to be popular in Utah?
18 points ahead?
I mean how much more “popular” does one need to be?
I guess considering GOP nominees usually win Utah by 35-40 points Trump “only” being 18 ahead is noteworthy. But without a McMullen running this year it takes the odds of Biden winning the state from 1 in 25 to 1 in 100 in my opinion.
Utah is probsbly the only state where the lack of 3rd party interest this year hurts Biden’s chances of taking the state rather than helping him.. And there wasn’t much of a chance of Utah going blue in the first place.
Our one Democrat in the House delegation from Utah looks strong against the GOP’s latest token black. A black Mormon, think about it. Talk about joining a club where you’re not welcome.
40% in Utah for Biden isn’t bad given how Republican the State has become.
I just got a picture sent from a friend who went to early vote in Alexandria Virginia. The socially distant line went for two blocks, women and people of color. Today’s totals should be interesting.
Gonna be ANOTHER 2018 type HEAVY vote
Last time the Democratic presidential candidate won as much as 40% in Utah was 1964, a mere 56 years ago [LBJ 54.9%], according to Dave Leip’s Atlas of U.S. Elections.
Last time a Democrat won as much as 35% of Utah’s popular presidential vote in Utah was the following election [HHH 37% in 1968 — only 52 years ago].
Not Democratic country out there , eh?
