Fifty-seven percent of the registered voters polled said if the election were held today, they'd vote for McCain. That's down from the 62 percent who said they backed him in September. Obama, though, saw his support in Utah increase from 24 percent last month to 32 percent. A total of 1,205 registered voters were surveyed Oct. 24-30 by Dan Jones & Associates for the poll, which has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.9 percent. "It's been a long time since a Democrat's done that well," pollster Dan Jones said. He said some Utahns may still resent McCain for beating their choice for president, Mitt Romney, the former leader of the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City and a Mormon. Not only did McCain win the GOP nomination, he passed Romney over for the No. 2 spot on the ticket in favor of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. Palin initially boosted McCain in national polls but has become increasingly unpopular nationwide, and, Jones said, in Utah. But McCain's Utah-based western states regional coordinator, Tim Bridgewater, said the numbers are due to the campaign's focus on battleground states. Even the Utah campaign is directing all of its resources towards voters in Nevada, Colorado and New Mexico.
