Yes.

Heck, there might not even be a McMullin campaign.

See that's the thing about Bernie throughout the campaign, he seemed like a nice, well-meaning guy with conviction. This sells well in Utah.

That's a pretty clear anti-thesis to trump, which Hillary isn't, not in the right way anyway.

No, it would have still been McMullin.  People are forgetting how socially conservative Utah is.

Do you really think 59% of Utah would vote for pro-abortion candidates?  Atlas conveniently always forgets this issue.

Johnson is far more fiscally conservative and probably more hawkish.

I think McMullin might actually be doing better in that scenario since some of the current Clinton voters may have voted for him instead of Sanders.

Butterflies might mean he might not run at all.

Well, Utah was Bernie's second or third best state in the primaries, while it was Trump's worst.

I'm also confused as to why everyone thought Johnson would do well in Utah, for this reason.

No, since he's socially liberal. I think he'd do better than Hillary Clinton, though.
