Dear Lauren,

PLEASE change this unacceptable headline. It is unfair to state that Mormons helped carry Trump to victory. In every presidential election, Utah votes ~70% Repub. They're the reddest state in the Union. 

This time, only 46% of Utahns voted "Republican". 21% voted for a COMPLETE NOBODY rather than vote Trump. Can you find me ANY other group where nearly a third of their reliably red voters defected, refusing to toe the party line? Good luck!

Of ALL the states that went Trump, Utah's 46% is the absolute LOWEST. Many states were in the 60s. Wyoming reached 70%. Yet you claim the Mormons CARRIED Trump to victory??

I wish that 100% of Mormons had abandoned Trump. But Mormons showed more integrity to principle than any other voting bloc in the nation, including liberals who refused to abandon HRC despite the outrageous corruptions exposed by Wikileaks. The whole nation should have voted 3rd party. Mormons showed more willingness than anyone else to actually do it.
