Carl Raschke, professor and chair of religious studies at the University of Denver is not surprised that that there are Mormons in Utah who are not voting for Mitt Romney because of his lack of experience with issues dealing with the West. "I think the novelty of having a Mormon as a serious contender in a national election probably appeals to a majority of Mormons," Raschke says. "But regional and cultural politics also play a factor. The issue is whether the religious factor trumps those."
