Talk:2012 United States presidential election in Utah

More material can be aded . ..
As the election gets closer, WP editors in Utah will no doubt want to add informative insights for Wikipedia readers. Here is something (I'm a Mormon in California). Where the Article here currently says, "In 2008, Mitt Romney received major support from the Mormon population..." it could be pointed out (with ref. of course) that "The LDS Church supports traditional family values and not specific candidates. They always have read from the pulpit their non-partisan position."
 * You may be interested to know that in pioneer days, to support the two-party system, Brigham Young, in general conference, said, 'Those on this half of the Tabernacle support the Republican Party, and those on the Left, support the Democrat Party." So can we count on UT editors of WP ? Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 23:58, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I made a modification to the simplistic view (just a sentence, currently) about Romney winning the 'religious vote' since currently, he is winning the 'Catholic vote' even though Santorum is Catholic. Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 00:56, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

The schedule and TALK about 'pledging' delegates
FYI, I just called my brother in Utah who said he and his wife were just leaving for Caucus (Provo/Orem/BYU/Utah-Valley area). So I checked GreenPapers.com and share this here (there are three dates). > Thursday 15 March 2012: "Neighborhood Precinct Caucuses meet to elect County and State Convention Delegates. Approximately 3,500 delegates are elected to the State Convention. There is no formal system applied in the Precinct Caucuses to relate the presidential preference to the election of State Convention delegates. The delegates in attendance at each caucus alone determine if presidential preference is to be a factor and, if so, how it is to be applied." > Saturday 21 April 2012: "The Utah State Republican Convention convenes." > Tuesday 26 June 2012: "[Utah's] Presidential Primary."

Four names will be on the Utah Republican ballot
Rick Santorum's name will not be on the ballot; Newt Gingrich has until April 20th to make good on the $500 filing fee (bounced). So you have Mitt Romney, Ron Paul, Newt Gingrich, and who is the fourth? Is it Jon Huntsman? Just asking, Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 08:51, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

The Utah Republican Convention is this Saturday. My brother and his wife are attending. Will post any news I learn, plus, of course, we have the newspapers. If you are really, really interested, the Green Papers for Utah give two dozen newspapers in Utah. See 'external links' in this Article for the link to Utah Green Papers.

Table of Results.
Watch the Green Papers (in the external references section) for voting and delegation formation results. Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 13:05, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
