https://fox13now.com/2018/09/18/poll-51-percent-of-utahns-disapprove-of-trump-women-like-him-less-than-men/Poll: 51 percent of Utahns disapprove of Trump, women like him less than men
A poll released on utahpolicy.com and conducted by Dan Jones & Associates says 51 percent of Utahns strongly or somewhat disapprove of the job President Donald Trump is doing.
41 percent of Utahns polled said they strongly disapproved of President Trump, while 10 percent said the somewhat disapproved, the poll said.
23 percent said they strongly approved, and 24 percent said they somewhat approved. Only one percent of people said answered dont know in the poll.
Utah men favored Trump 58 to 40 percent, while women disapproved of him 48 to 46, the poll found.
Rarely do Utah men and women feel so differently about an issue or person than we find today with Trump, Utah Policy said. Statistically speaking, the 23-percentage-point swing between disapproval ratings in the sexes is nothing short of remarkable.
Very active Mormons said in the poll that they like Trump, 62 to 37 percent.

(6,115 posts)3. Fox story mangled the statistics
There is no way women women disapproved only 48-46. That does not match with the 23% difference between men and women.
The problem is with the Fox story, not with the original article which said:
"Utah women and men couldnt disagree more about the president: Men favor him, 58-40 percent, but women really dont like him, 63-37 percent."
Fox reporter could not even cut and paste.

There would have to be a whole lot more women than men in the state for that first set of statistics to be correct
