Can Your Religion Predict Your Politics?

from ReligionForBreakfast · host ReligionForBreakfast

A recent study analyzed 130,000 religious leaders in the United States, mostly from Christian and Jewish denominations. The researchers compared their voting registration with their denominations, trying to find trends in each denomination. Some denominations swing hard in one direction (Democrat or Republican) while other denominations seem more evenly split.
