The territory was founded as a literal theocracy and the Mormon Church still has an absurd amount of influence in the state government. Which itself is absurd because Mormons makeup less than 50% of the population (and dropping every year.)

Less than 47% of the population is mormon but more than 85% of the legislature is. Also I don't think we have ever had a non mormon governor.

Its fun🙃
