There is a big increase in the number of total votes in 1984 compared to the other elections so clearly that influx of people really affected the results

The weird thing about this is that the overall population of Daggett decreased by 10.3% in the 1980s. And turnout fell right back off in 1988.

Maybe Mondale's cousin lived there or something.
This is really a mystery to me, somehow Mondale managed to do better in this obscure Utah County than any Democrat since LBJ despite losing Utah as a whole by near 50% and losing nationally by 18%. it's mind boggling.

Another mystery to add to "unexplained electoral swings" along with Kerry's overperformance in eastern Kentucky.

I’m going with the Mondale cousin theory I like that one lol !

Similar to my theory that the freak 70-80 point swing of some rural Texas county (I can't remember which one) from Truman to Ike in 52 was caused by the family of the girl Adlai Stevenson accidentally killed living there.
