If the Democrats play their cards right this year, they could undo the monopoly the GOP has had on the Mormon vote since the 1980s.
It should be pretty obvious from their history that Mormons aren't big fans of discriminating against religious minorities. And since they live in an incredibly homogeneous region where pretty much everyone is white and Mormon, the two things that animate the GOP these days - resentment-fueled white identity politics and the Victimhood/Martyrdom Complex that Evangelical Christians have from occasionally having to encounter people who disagree with them - are absent.
There are getting to be more Mexicans. Although it is very strange how if you compare Utah to the surrounding states, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado... all seem to have larger Hispanic populations. Is there some sort of force field along the Utah border that keeps them out? Why this difference?
