The politics of Utah Sen. Mitt Romney’s 11th-hour mystery on how he will vote on President Trump’s impeachment has become sticky now that a new survey finds that the president is more popular in Utah.
The Utah Policy survey showed that for the first time since his election, a majority of Utah voters approve of Trump’s job performance, echoing his surge in national surveys.
According to the poll analysis, “The survey, conducted for UtahPolicy.com and 2 News by Y2 Analytics shows 52% of likely voters approve of President Trump, while 45% disapprove, giving the president a net-positive approval rating of +7.”
The same outfit in October found Romney’s job approval underwater, at 46%-51%.
“That is not good,” said the analysis.
At approximately 2:00 p.m. ET, I will be speaking on the Senate floor regarding the impeachment vote. You will be able to watch live on my Twitter feed, and also on the Senate’s official website: https://t.co/mlS6RtPeXb

The Republican, on Wednesday, is set to announce how he will vote on Trump’s impeachment. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has locked down the other GOP senators on Trump’s behalf. But he hasn’t been exerting much pressure on Romney, deciding to let the Trump critic make up his own mind.
Romney joined Maine Sen. Susan Collins in voting to hear from witnesses during the Senate trial, a bid that failed. She announced Tuesday that she would vote to acquit the president today. Romney faced conservative criticism after his witness vote.
Significantly, Trump’s approval rating is high among Mormons, said the survey.
“Trump does get strong job approval ratings among Mormon and other religious voters in Utah. 59% of ‘very active’ LDS Church members, 64% of somewhat active Mormons approve of how he’s handling his duties in the White House while 52% of inactive Mormons disapprove,” it said.
