"Hillary Clinton got a double boost Wednesday morning from an unlike source: Utah. Not only did a poll show the Democratic nominee tied with Donald Trump in the ruby-red state, but Utah's biggest newspaper, the Salt Lake Tribune, endorsed Clinton.

In an editorial that slammed Trump as "a total disgrace" and took Clinton to task for her email server and secrecy, the paper said the "eminently qualified" Clinton had earned their endorsement."



Unfortunately the NYT Election Forecast still has Utah solidly red.

But majority vote may not go to Trump:

"The Y2 Analytics poll, published first by Mormon church-owned Deseret News, found both Clinton and Trump at 26% among likely Utah voters, with independent Evan McMullin at 22% and Libertarian Gary Johnson at 14%."

There's not much polling for Utah. The most recent (Oct. 10-12) from Y2 has the race as a tossup with Trump and Cinton each at 26% and Johnson at 14%.

Here's a small (but heartfelt) one -- state president of the Iowa Federation of Republican Women:

It's finally great to see Republican women standing up for their principles. And I do believe it will be women who will be the downfall of Trump. Fitting.

--signed a former republican woman.

And on the topic of Republican women calling out Trump, here's a tweetstorm from another one (I previously posted this in the Jeff Sessions thread but maybe it's more appropriate here):

Marybeth ?@MBGlenn 3h3 hours ago https://twitter.com/MBGlenn/status/785641127604916224

So let me get this straight: I, a conservative female, have spent years defending the Republican Party against claims of sexism. When I saw Republican men getting attacked I stood up for them. I came to their defense. I fought on their behalf. I fought on behalf of a movement I believed in. I fought on behalf of my principles while other women told me I hated my own sex. Not only charges of sexism, but I defended @marcorubio during Go8, I fought in my state to stop the @ScottWalker recall, etc...

Now some Trojan horse nationalist sexual predator invades the @GOP, eating it alive, and you cowards sit this one out? He treats women like dogs, and you go against everything I – and other female conservatives – said you were and back down like cowards. Get this straight: We don’t need you to stand up for us, YOU needed to stand up for us for YOU. For YOUR dignity. For YOUR reputation. Jeff Sessions says that he wouldn’t “characterize” Trump’s unauthorized groping of women as “assault.” Are you kidding me?! Others try to rebuke his comments, yet STILL choose to vote for a sexual predator - because let’s be honest, that’s what he is. "What he said is wrong, and the way he treats women is wrong, but it’s not wrong enough for me to not vote for him." Thanks, cowards.

Various men in the movement are writing it off as normal, confirming every stereotype the left has thrown at them. So I'm done. I'm sooo done. If you can’t stand up for women and unendorse this piece of human garbage, you deserve every charge of sexism thrown at you. I’m just one woman, you won’t even notice my lack of presence at rallies, fair booths, etc., You won’t really care that I’m offended by your silence, and your inability to take a stand. But one by one you’ll watch more women like me go, and you’ll watch men of ACTUAL character follow us out the door. And what you’ll be left with are the corrupt masses that foam at the mouth every time you step outside the lines. Men who truly see women as lesser beings, and women without self-respect. And your “guiding faith” and "principles" will be attached to them as well. And when it’s all said and done, all you’ll have left is the party The Left always accused you of being. Scum.

My favorite part of that is: We don't need you to stand up for us, YOU needed to stand up for us for YOU. For YOUR dignity. For YOUR reputation.

Must you post these pictures? I don't think my father has touched my hips since I was 3 yrs old and needed to be carried somewhere. Nor would I touch his waist as Ivanka is doing.

Small tangent, carry on...
