    People moving out of Utah

    Saw this today, Utah according to United Van Lines has the ninth highest % of people leaving the state versus moving to the state.

    https://utahbusiness.com/utah-seeing...ve-move-state/

    Perhaps this does not reflect reality as its only one data point but I was under the impression that Utah was gaining population well above the natural average.

    This article has Utah as the fastest growing state. It specifically discusses the high (mormon) birth rate as well. So its not just people moving in/out of the state but also that we have a higher than average birthing rate.

    Maybe the backward politics and stance on public lands turned enough people off.

    Better weed ballot measure is up for a vote this November. If you are a Utah resident, be certain that you are registered to vote and please do so this fall.

    I wonder if any polls have been done and will it pass ? Hope so. Damn shame ones life can be messed up just for a buzz and some laughs.

    Big question is when will the feds finally take the same steps or will hell freeze over.

    You're going have to wait for Sessions to be fired, but that presents a whole new set of problems.

    The Mormons have been vocally opposed to this and have made it known to their flock that it will destroy the world as we now if it passes. Haven’t seen a poll but I bet it goes down in flames.

    It was polling around 60-70% favorable, hence the Mormon Church's campaign against it and the bullshit bills proposed in the legislature to confuse the issue.

    Here's hoping these last-ditch measures to derail it fail.
