Latest Utah poll gives Trump razor thin edge over McMullin

SALT LAKE CITY — Republican Donald Trump has a razor thin edge over independent candidate Evan McMullin in the latest presidential poll of Utah voters.

A UtahPolicy.com survey released Thursday shows Trump with 30 percent, McMullin at 29 percent and Democrat Hillary Clinton getting 25 percent.

The poll by Dan Jones & Associates is among four of the last five polls to have McMullin even with or ahead of Trump in Utah. Clinton has held fairly steady in each of the surveys.

Some news organizations and political pundits have now moved reliably Republican Utah to a battleground or toss-up state.

Lagging behind the top three in the Jones poll are Libertarian Gary Johnson, who has fallen to 4 percent, and Green Party nominee Jill Stein and Constitution Party candidate Darrell Castle with 1 percent each.
