Right, Wisconsin is the same... we have an open primary, so anyone can
vote in either primary, but only one or the other (not both). What
we're talking about here is just marking the Republican or Democrat
box at the top of the ballot instead of voting for each individual
candidate... I didn't realize Wisconsin had gotten rid of that until I
saw we weren't on the list. I've never heard of it ever being
mandatory though.

I might also argue that Clinton is more

question would be would you vote for Trump
because he's a Republican
(he's
not really), or because he's conservative
(he's not that either).

Utah (and Idaho too) will vote Republican.
They can talk and say "we
will
never support Trump"... but at the end of the
day, both states will be
Red... as always.
I personally have wanted to get rid of the
political parties for a LONG
time... let each candidate say what he will do
on every subject, and
not be
associated with these "parties" that really
don't mean anything
anymore.
Republicans used to believe "this", but now,
20 years later, they now
believe "this". The parties have no real value
or benefit, other than
to
keep thousands of people employed.

It's funny that everyone says "You can't say
that and win"... yet Utah
has
voted Republican for the last 10 elections (40
years). I think it's a
lot
like Idaho, that many people check the first
"Republican" box on the
first
page, and never turn the book to even see who
that is or what they even
stand for.
Do you really think if Trump wins the
nomination that Utah would vote
for
Hillary over Trump? A woman as President, in a
state of 50% Mormon,
where
they don't allow women to hold any real
leadership positions?
Trump knows he has Utah and Idaho because they
have voted Red for the
last
40 years.

Trump has been saying that he doesn’t really
mean or believe some of
the
hyperbolic things that have came out of his mouth.
I know the Lt. Gov fairly well here in Utah.
His family are 100 year
ILEC owners. Have known them for years.
This is what he said after the Trump speech:
"I need to say this, OK, ...and last night
Donald Trump did something
and
said something that I never thought I'd see a
candidate for president
do and
say, especially someone in the Republican Party."
"Think about that for a second," Cox told the
crowd. "A person running
for
office, in our party, thinks it's OK that if
you question his politics,
he
can question your religion. I have a message
for the 3 million people
in
Utah for Mr. Donald Trump: That's not how we
roll in Utah, and that's
not
how we roll in the United States of America."

It's time for a change... that's the bottom
line. Everyone else running
is
a "lifer"... someone that has been in politics
or has wanted to be,
their
entire life. Nobody else is going to make any
REAL changes. It's time
for
something different.
It's also refreshing to have someone say what
they REALLY think...
instead
of giving lip service for six months before
the election, and then
having
them not do anything that they said. At least
Trump is saying what he
thinks.
