Unpopularity among both major party presidential candidates could
lead to marginal success by third party candidates in some states in
2016, which would be the greatest performance by non-Republican or
Democratic candidates in over two decades.
Deseret News presidential poll Tuesday
showed Republican Donald Trump tied with Democrat Hillary Clinton with
26% percent support, closely trailed by Independent candidate Evan
McMullin with 22%. Libertarian Gary Johnson was also in double-digits,
polling at 14%.
McMullin was a relatively unknown political
operative before this presidential cycle, but has longtime ties to The
Beehive State: he was born in Provo, attended Brigham Young University,
and is a practicing member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day
Saints.
