The Battle for Utah

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has zoomed to a commanding lead in Utah's GOP caucuses, according to a new poll released Saturday. It also gave a glimpse into how frustrated the state's Republicans are with Donald Trump's candidacy.

The Y2 Analytics survey shows Cruz with 53 percent support among likely Republican caucus-goes and if that matches Tuesday's caucus vote, he'd win all of the state's 40 GOP delegates.

Coming in second is Ohio Gov. John Kasich with 29 percent, while Trump, the national front-runner, was a distant third at 11 percent.

The Y2 Analytics poll was conducted from Thursday to Saturday and included 500 respondents, capturing some of the reaction from public events held by all three of the Republican candidates. Cruz held three public events in Utah on Saturday with Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, commentator Glenn Beck and former presidential candidate Carly Fiorina. Kasich and Trump held events on Friday.

what else did you expect form a cult like the mormons? i get tired of hearing that idiot beck and romney whining about GOD and how we should vote. Last time I checked the mormons didn't believe in Jesus so go pound sand! they actually believe they will become gods and get their own planet to inhabit, along with thier bs racist beliefs and fancy underwear. just cause they use Jesus's name doesn"t mean a thing.
show me them golden tablets!

They do not believe in the doctrine of the Trinity, they do not believe in God the Father as he is recognized in the orthodox Christian faith, and they believe that 'As man now is, God was once.' The only thing right about that sentence from the orthodox Christian perspective is the punctuation."

12:42 You do know that the Mormons are called the "Church of Jesus Christ and ladder day saints" right ? They believe in Jesus and that he is the son of god.

I don't agree with a lot of their views but your way off. Maybe your mixing them up with Scientology ?

Seems odd to me. Surely the Mormons know of the generally poor opinion of their faith held by many evangelical Christians, why vote for Cruz?
