From Dylan Baddour at The Houston Chronicle / 03.22.2016:
In the days before Tuesday’s Utah Republican caucus, supporters on the campaign trail of Ted Cruz have offered a novel appeal: that the Texas senator could fulfill a Mormon end times prophecy.
The comments were first reported by the Salt Lake City Tribune Saturday from a campaign rally in Utah, the only U.S. state with a Mormon majority, and a state where Cruz stands a good chance of passing the 50 percent threshold to win a full slate of delegates.
