South Dakota always looks like it's going to trend towards the Democrats in presidential elections, but it never happens.

I voted Montana.

The whole Utah situation is difficult to read without more polling.  Right now I think Montana will go around D+12, Utah more like D+15.  Conservatively.  But Utah could move way up to flipping at D+10 or even D+8.

I am going to go ahead and say Utah, because if for some reason you can flip the Mormon vote, then its over.

Utah, probably. If Trump remains unpopular with Mormons and Johnson doesn't flame out, Clinton could win with something like 35 to 40 percent of the vote. With any other Republican nominee, Utah would be Safe R.

Montana and South Dakota are less easy for Clinton to flip, but she could do it if her lead was something like 8-10%. I think if she wins one, she probably wins the other as well.
