Best Answer

Most members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) live outside the United States. They do not pledge allegiance to the US because they are not US citizens.

Mormons believe in honoring their country, wherever they live. Within Mormonism, honoring or 'pledging allegiance' to your country is a part of pledging allegiance to your religion, since Mormons are expected to "be subject to kings, presidents, rulers and magistrates in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law."

Do Mormons say the pledge of alligence?

Yes. Most American members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the 'Mormon' church) have no problem saying the pledge of allegiance. There are a few who do not think it is appropriate to say the pledge allegiance because allegiance should be only to God, so they might not say it, but the majority don't have a problem with it. The Church itself has no official stand on the matter.
