I wouldn't not vote for an LDS member just because they don't agree with me; I have no problem voting for someone who is Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist, Atheist, and even Muslim (as long as they aren't extreme). I just can't vote for a person who believes such goofy stuff. If the book of Mormon says that the descendants of Cain and Ham were cursed to be black, why would I vote for someone who believes that? Why would anyone believe that all of the biblical stories took place in the Americas when that goes against the research of historians and anthropologists? How can someone believe that the real Israelites are actually the Native Americans? The whole man becoming gods thing and starting their own planets just sounds like 19th century Scientology. The only reason why the LDS abandoned polygamy was so that Utah could become a state and they excluded blacks from priesthood until 1978, conveniently after the Civil Rights Movement because of a "revelation from God".
