YouGov got results close to the national average in 2012. I wasn't going to accept its polls... but those polls proved better than anyone else's.

University poll? We have some already -- Quinnipiac, Roanoke, Marquette University Law School, and (likely soon enough) Marist and Siena.

Brigham Young University has an excellent reputation for academics other than those in which LDS theology might interfere.

Utah? How patient are you?

Utah is profoundly conservative. 58% of Utah voters consider themselves "conservative". But know well: the powerful LDS Church is strong enough to break a Republican candidacy. Not a Mormon, I cannot predict what the LDS hierarchy would do if Trump were the GOP nominee. I doubt that it would give a sympathetic endorsement to him.

Democrats can call Donald Trump for his involvement with gambling casinos... which also imply smoking, liquor, bawdy shows, and even prostitution, all of which offend Mormon sensibilities.

Maybe this is not so ridiculous as it seems if it were a generic Republican against a generic Democrat.  Trump has baggage, and this baggage is not the sort that a bellhop delivers to a room.
