SALT LAKE CITY — If Donald Trump becomes the Republican Party's nominee, Utahns would vote for a Democrat for president in November for the first time in more than 50 years, according to a new Deseret News/KSL poll.

"I believe Donald Trump could lose Utah. If you lose Utah as a Republican, there is no hope," said former Utah Gov. Mike Leavitt, a top campaign adviser to the GOP's 2012 nominee, Mitt Romney.

As much as i would like to think that is a possibility, I highly doubt it. But maybe in 2020.

I live in a heavily populated LDS area and belong to a neighboorhood book club with several LDS women. They have expressed deep concern about the direction the GOP has taken. Mormons absolutely will not vote for Trump. A couple of the women told me that they will vote for Hillary if Trump is the nominee.
