It is a weird blend with caucus actually doing the work but supposedly there is 
a concurrent primary.  I don’t understand it.

I think Utah is actually a caucus state, so I'm assuming it's probably closed, 
but I'm not sure. And yeah, I agree that the numbers don't mean a lot for 
what'll happen in the general, but looking at the huge differences, I just 
can't see Clinton winning there... Sanders, maybe - he did get almost three 
times the votes Trump did, but still only about half of what Cruz got.

  I am not familiar with Utah's primary process, and each state is very
  different. What was the registration deadline for people to
  select/change political parties before the primary? Can you vote Dem
  if registered Rep? Can you vote Rep if registered Dem?

  Each state is very different, and these are important things to be
  aware of as they drastically effect the end numbers.
