The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" Church) has been around for 180 years and currently has over 13.5 million members. Millions upon millions of Church members have died. It would be nearly impossible to get an exact count.
No official count is available to the public, but there have been many Mormons who have died in the recent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

No, Mormons believe that Jesus was crucified on a cross, just like most other Christians. Mormons believe and study the Bible throughly, so the accounts there are what we believe. Mormons dont however use the cross as a religious symbol like many other religions... Perhaps you are thinking of the Jehovah's Witnesses? They do not believe that Jesus died on a cross.
Many didn't. Disease was rife, and many died from the cold. Those who survived, were the lucky ones.
After being driven from Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois, the Mormons were forced to begin a journey, or quest, across the United States to seek religious freedom. In 1846, the first companies began the trek west, by ox-drawn wagons and handcarts. Many died on this first and many subsequent journeys.The Mormons finally settled in the Salt Lake Valley, where religious freedom was reached.
Romney didn't die.

There have been many Mormons in politics through the years. Please see the related source link below.
The early Mormon Pioneers were mostly disliked in the Midwest just because of their numbers. There were so many of them that the politics and culture in their area were significantly influenced by them. This angered people who lived there before the Mormons arrived, as they felt the Mormons were 'taking over' their community.
This could be due to several reasons.First, the Shakers were more insular and kept to themselves, while Mormons have a very extensive evangelism effort and proliferate into their communities. Since Mormons were out and about, people had a higher chance of being annoyed by them.Second, the Shakers were, for the most part, a smaller group. The Mormons are ever-expanding. People felt more threatened by the Mormons and in some cases were worried that Mormons would take over their cities and towns. There were more Mormons, so there were more to persecute.Third, the Shakers have died out, but Mormonism lives on. Nobody persecutes Shakers anymore because they don't exist, but Mormons are still persecuted by many to this day.
