Title: Millard county utah, where Obama only beats Baldwin by 3 to one Post by: rob in cal on February 01, 2009, 04:13:57 PM I wonder if Millard county Utah has the record for any county with over 4,000 votes in which a major party candidate (Obama in this case) defeats the conservative constitution party by a ratio of three to one. Obama got about 16% of the vote, Baldwin 5.5%.
