They do not vote their conscience and are captivated by a Christian platform that the Republicans present to them. However, the Republicans do not follow through the Christian agenda as apparent with the beginning of President Bush's second term and the Republicans having control both the House and Senate.

no longer positive about the demographics interior the united kingdom, yet over the following, the answer isn't continually. It relies upon on what type of a Christian you're speaking about. for instance, i'm from ny, which has a great Catholic inhabitants, yet they vote Democrat on a consistent foundation. Mainstream Protestants and Evangelical Christians, on the different hand, have a tendency to vote extra regularly than not Republican. those are generalizations, notwithstanding, depending on the balloting traits of diverse non secular affiliations. Breaks down like this: Liberal Christians vote for Democrats, and Conservative Christians vote for Republicans. pondering what a wide share of the inhabitants the following identifies itself as Christian, in the journey that they continually voted Republican, we would in effortless words have a one party equipment.

They don't. I'm one and I rarely have. What bugs me about the question is the assumption that only the Fallwell, Robertson, Dobson types are Christians. There are some of us out here who place less importance on homophobia and Biblical literalism, and more importance on the belief that as we treat the least, so we treat Christ.

They don't. Just the bible belt. 86% of the US is some denomination of Christianity, so clearly if they voted republican then we would never have a democratic candidate win. Obviously, they vote democratic in varying equal numbers. The top 5 religions in the US are:
Christianity 86.2%
Nonreligious 7.5%
Judaism 1.8%
Agnostic 0.7%
Islam 0.5%

It might have something to do with the liberal democrats taking prayer out of schools, the word GOD out of everything, etc.
