As of the 2024 presidential election, this is the only presidential race since 1948 where Utah voted Democrat, and the last time a Democratic presidential candidate has exceeded 40% of the state's vote. It also marks the most recent time that Utah, Weber, Wasatch, Duchesne, Juab, Morgan, Beaver, Wayne, and Daggett Counties have voted Democratic, as well as the last time Democrats carried any congressional district in the state.Sullivan, Robert David; ‘How the Red and Blue Map Evolved Over the Past Century’; America Magazine in The National Catholic Review; June 29, 2016.
