McMullin dead in the polls. Work accomplished. http://www.stgeorgeutah.com/news/archiv ... ird-place/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Thanks to everyone who helped contribute to the thread, especially those who didn't necessarily agree with it, but realized how important it was for people to sincerely study a candidate out before blindly following them only because of their religious affiliation.

Yes, he did indeed make robocalls--My sister received one. He made them in order to try to sway LDS to vote for Donald Trump. Notice that? A white supremacist for Donald Trump and so he made the calls to hurt Evan McMullin.Joel wrote:White supremacist and BYU grad, William Johnson robocalls Utah voters again
Johnson robocalled Utah back in the primaries

It wasn't a set up, This guy had his won PAC in support of Donald Trump and was attempting to stop McMullin's rise in the polls. He stopped the calls and 'apologized' a couple of days ago when news of it hit the media.JohnnyL wrote:It sounds like a set-up, or the guy is crazy.
McMullin's rise in the polls has ended and Trump is winning, easily.

If this was a general discussion forum, you could get away with saying 'so what', but it's not. This is an LDS forum and our LDS faith is incompatible with racist views.Elizabeth wrote:So what? The white race is entitled to representation and protection.
Your views are not in harmony with the teachings of the church.

How about blindly following a candidate because they like his 'style' or his wealth and fame? As for 'work accomplished' in destroying Evan McMullin, it seems that 'the end justifies the means' is Trump's modus operandi and it's apparently shared by his supporters. I don't think you REALLY wanted the people to sincerely study Trump's record (of business/personal/political) cause if they had, he wouldn't have become the Republican nominee.Lexew1899 wrote:McMullin dead in the polls.

But that's water under the bridge now. No going back. I guess we just wait and see what happens Tuesday.

Re: Evan McMullin for President 2016 LDS?
I wouldn't suggest for anybody to like any political candidate because of their "style", or their religious affiliation, or because they apparently say their prayers and take their vitamins every night. I am glad enough good and honest people in the state of Utah did their due diligence and studied out the policies of Evan and realized they weren't in harmony with their own principles.

This guy had his won PAC"--I'm not sure what this means?
Maybe the calls worked, eh? Lol. I hope, and hope not more...

Would you say EM is racist? I mean, going after and killing people for doing things everyone else is doing--what is his motivation, I wonder?
Is Clinton racist? Have you watched her video about Blacks? Lol, no need to ask that question... And as we see the GR and population control, do you think Whites are at the top of the thinning list?

Final election results for the Deseret News' poster boy, Evan McMullin . . . . from: http://www.politico.com/2016-election/r ... /president" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Election Results for Evan McMullin:
Arkansas: 1.2 %
Colorado: 1.0%
Idaho: 6.8%

Louisiana: 0.4%
Minnesota: 1.8%
New Mexico: 0.7%

Somewhat gratifying that only 20% of Utah voters were gulled by this attempt by the Deseret News to foist this guy on it's readers. Idaho's 6.8% is even better, but still dismaying.

Now that segment of the LDS population will have to go back to judging teenage LDS gals they see wearing bikinis and men who pass the sacrament wearing blue shirts. ;)larsenb wrote:Final election results for the Deseret News' poster boy, Evan McMullin . . . . from: http://www.politico.com/2016-election/r ... /president" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Evan McMullin is in the news again for being the first to suggest making a Stasi style blacklist, which inspired AOC and the rest. A wolf in sheep's clothing confirmed.

Egg McMuffin's 'wolf in sheep's clothing' status was well-confirmed four years ago. All the deceived, deluded Mormons who voted for him should have their names on a list, too - and no doubt they will, as Satan loves to eat his own.

What? I thought he was a conservative mormon with Utah values who represented dignity, apple pie and the American Way.
My faith in the system is shook.
