Utah is a state in the Mountain West sub-region of the Western United States.[1] Since its admission to the Union in January 1896, it has participated in 32 United States presidential elections. In the 1896 presidential election, Utah was easily won by the Democratic Party's candidate William Jennings Bryan, who received almost 83% of the popular vote.[2] In the subsequent four years, however, the Republican Party dominated Utah politics, which continued until the 1932 presidential election.[3] In the four-way race in the 1912 presidential election, Utah was one of the only two states won by the incumbent president William Howard Taft.[4] In the 1932 election, Democratic Party candidate Franklin D. Roosevelt won Utah, amid a national political landslide victory.[5] Democrats maintained their influence in Utah politics until the 1952 presidential election, after which the Republican party regained its influence.[3]

In the 1992 presidential election, Utah was one of the two states where the Independent candidate Ross Perot finished in second place, ahead of the Democratic candidate Bill Clinton.[6] In the 2016 presidential election, Evan McMullin organised a campaign as an Independent candidate for the presidency.[7] In late October, his polling numbers in Utah were almost 25%.[8] By the election day, however, his polling numbers reduced and he received almost 21.5% of the popular vote in Utah.[9] The Republican Party won Utah in 17 of the last 18 elections.[10] Recent national surveys show Utah as one of the most Republican states in the nation.[11]
