At the time of the election I lived in Utah, for those who don’t know Utah is a heavily republican state. Outside SLC county, the state is majority conservative. My family voted for Harris, but honestly there was never a chance Utah as a state would go blue since the 1970s. In the end, for those that live outside the swing states (the purple states that decide elections) there is little chance of influencing the election. I’m both trans and bisexual, I fear for the state of this country. I didn’t want this :/ I’m on Medicare and Medicaid and the budget bill would stop my access to gender-affirming care. I wouldn’t be able to be on HRT, and I would probably have to live without the surgery I’ve wanted for so long.
There are 1.765 million registered voters in Utah. Trump got 883k votes. Kamala could have carried the state by nearly 200k people if they bothered to vote.
Unlikely, but still possible. If people in deep red states decided it was worth it to still got out and vote blue, even if they were going to lose.
