RE: Bidirectional Concerns of Influence

Comment comment by Anonymous on 06 February 2008

I came up with more questions regarding LSD stats:

1) Is Utah the state with the largest Mormon population?

2) Is Utah the state with the largest Mormon concentration?

It doesn't tell me anything if you have a state of 2 million and 14% of all Mormon population is 1.89M ... just wondering... I am sure there is plenty of data out therem, but I hoped you had a ready answer....

RE: Bidirectional Concerns of Influence by Brandon :: NR9

The Wikipedia article on the membership statistics of the LDS Church seems to be a good resource. In answer to your questions, though - yes, and yes.

RE: Bidirectional Concerns of Influence by VnutZ :: NR8

62% of Utah is Mormon according to the Wikipedia article in the comments above. So while that may only represent 14% of Mormon's as a whole, the other 86% are diluted across the rest of the US and do not have sway power in terms of turning delegates as a simple collective group. Unless in Utah (at the moment), they are just a minority.
