2040 United States presidential election in Utah



The 2040 United States presidential election in Utah was held on Tuesday, November 6, 2040, as part of the 2040 United States presidential election. The Republican ticket of incumbent President Gary Braun and Vice President Will Ainsworth won the state with 62.32% of the vote and a 28.50% margin of victory, making it the third most Republican state in the country in 2040, after North Dakota and Wyoming.

Analysis
While the Republican margin of victory in Utah (as in every state in the country) was much narrower than 2036, when Braun won the state by over a 40% margin, due to the Gary Braun pharmaceutical bribes scandal, which moved Braun from being favored for re-election to being defeated in a landslide nationally. However, in Utah, the Republican margin of victory was not particularly narrow by historical standards; 2028, 2020 and 2008 were all closer in Utah, despite them all being much closer elections nationally.
