CBS News/YouGov Utah Poll: Trump Leads by 17 Points
Breitbart ^ | October 16, 2016 | John Hayward

Posted on 10/16/2016 8:13:36 PM PDT by SamAdams76

While several recent polls from Utah have suggested Donald Trump is recapturing his lead there, an astounding new survey from CBS News and YouGov finds him with a 17-point lead over Hillary Clinton, far beyond what other polls suggest.

Independent write-in candidate Evan McMullin, whose campaign is almost entirely dedicated to attacking Trump, plays a major role in the CBS/YouGov poll… but he might be hurting Clinton at least as much as Trump.

In fact, he’s tied with Hillary Clinton in Utah. Donald Trump leads with 37 percent, while Hillary Clinton and Evan McMullin draw 20 percent each, followed by Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson with 7 percent and Jill Stein of the Green Party with 1 percent.

“Odd election. Losing nationally by 11 pts but winning Utah by 17 pts.”

There you are again. Sowing seeds of doubt.

Get out of here.

Odd election. Losing nationally by 11 pts but winning Utah by 17 pts.

2004: National: Bush +2.5%, Utah: Bush +45.5% = 43% swing
2008: National: Obama +7%, Utah: McCain +28% = 35% swing
2012: National: Obama +4%, Utah: Romney +48% = 52% swing

28% difference between national and Utah is smaller than usual.

Glen Beck is going to have a breakdown when he hears this. He spent one of his shows last week promoting McMullin. You’d think the sun rises and sets on his ass.

I used to think that about Romney too - that he was some liberal Mormon but that he was a model of integrity, and I did know all about what his old man did to Goldwater the generation before. But now, I see he’s a bitter poor loser who should’ve focused his disappointment on that fool in the WH instead of waiting to take it out on Donald Trump. Sour Mormon grapes is all.

Rush needs to get off that. I used to think that too, but when the attack on Trump was personal from Mittz. He lost me. He is just another GOPe politician.

Now now, be nice to the concern trolls. Your lack of concern is very disconcerting.

He is a Romney GOPe/Globalist plant who some have theorized may have been put in the race for the rather implausible mission to throw election into House...

Mitt Clinton has not shot his last bolt. Hold on to your hat after the last debate. Those last two weeks will be historic, IMO.

McHillary is only on the ballot in 11 states. His whole “campaign” is a pathetic joke and an insult to the millions of Republicans who voted Trump in the primary.

Oh boy! This election is the roller coaster of roller coasters. Making G force sort of wimpy in comparison. My oh my the totalitarians are out in force doing all they can to steal the election. Glad to see this poll.

The lamest Repub candidate ever won by 28 points in Utah. Romney won by 48. But there’s been reports recently saying that it’s swung the other way by 57 points and Hillary is up by 9. The people reporting this are stoned.

Being from Utah, I’ve driven the length of the state several times this year. I’ve seen ZERO Hillary signs in front yards. The only Hillary stickers I’ve seen are a few “Hillary for Prison” and a couple of gray-haired women in Subarus from Oregon. I’ve also seen half a dozen Bernie die-hards with stickers on their cars.

Trump isn’t losing by 11. The news media has been unable to make any headway for Hillary. All they’ve got left is THE BIG LIE. Tell everybody everywhere that she’s winning and maybe it will happen. Nope, people just aren’t buying it this time around.

Romney is a complete idiot. He is 69 years old, has more money than Fort Knox, and this is how he chooses to spend his time? He needs psychological help as much as Glenn Beck.

It’s the same thing with Bush. We had his back when the media was utterly trashing him on the War in Iraq/Afghanistan. He paid us back by going progressive and kicking us in the teeth on a daily basis. I hate him more than Klinton and Obama. At least you knew what you were getting Bubba and Zero and they were straight-up with what they’re about.

The MSM have realized they need to switch tactics and try to terrify the left into some enthusiasm?

I hope it’s that way all over the country.
