Clinton should strategically cede Utah and urge her supporters to vote for McMullin at this point as a way to guarantee Trump's defeat in the EC, assuming the race is generally within these parameters (it increasingly appears so).
She should also run ads for McMullin in colorado, virginia and iowa in the last minute to siphon off conservative voters. Im reminded of how a environmentalist superpac in 2012 made a group that appeared to be a group protecting the interest of hunters in montana so they could run ads for a libertarian candidate. Really helped jon tester.

Does that make sense though? Since a split EV probably means a Trump victory in the House, Clinton needs to win a majority of EVs. A state going to McMullin or Trump makes no difference from that perspective.
spoiler: shes not going to win utah so better off to let mcmullin have it to embarrass trump.
