It's entirely possible for a Dem to get elected in Utah. More difficult, sure, but being a Republican doesn't guarantee victory. There are plenty of Dems in the state legislature.
Jim Matheson is a Dem Congressman that covers Salt Lake City. He's actually pretty moderate, and has been re-elected. He barely won the first time, but he got re-elected by a larger margin against the same guy he ran against the first time (and that guy was an idiot too).
I'd have voted for him if he were in my district, but I had good ol' Chris Cannon as my rep. He was more pro-consumer on digital matters, but I have no idea where he stands now as I no longer live in Utah.
It's more important now to vote for people as both parties are significantly screwed up right now. I think even people in Utah are waking up to that fact.
