Should Dems start giving money to get Even McMullen to run again?

Maybe he could be our Jill Stein pulling even more Mormons away this round? I doubt we can win Utah but he could do damage in swing states with a number of Mormons.


Totals in Utah 2016


Donald Trump -- Popular Vote - 515,231 -- 45.54%

Hillary Clinton -- 310,676 -- 27.46%

Evan McMullin -- 243,690 -- 21.54%



He was on quite a few state ballots in 2016. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evan_McMullin_2016_presidential_campaign

He has campaign debt from 2016 so I don't know if he will get involved. Maybe Michael Bloomberg should be donating to him? Or would he pull more from Dems than Trump if Mormons are really starting to hate trump.
