Does anybody know what the Jew and Catholic was?

Where can I find it. Just curious

Romney won at least 74% of the Evangelical vote.

OPPS!!!! Forgot to type the word “vote”. Hilarious!

I knew what you meant, but there could have been some interesting responses given the way you posed the question. LOL :)

If you're asking demographically how they voted in Prez election, per CNN today (their exit polls):
* Jewish vote went 69-30% for Obama (so Romney did better than McCain)
* Roman Catholic vote went 50-48% for Obama...so Roman Catholics helped to give Obama the win...especially in the Upper Midwest states

And these weren't all fringe Catholics either.

CNN found that Obama did better than expected among voters who attended church weekly (39-59%)

White Evangelicals voted for Romney 78-21%
Protestants voted for Romney 57-42%

This means to counterbalance that 78-21%, the rest of the Protestants -- the liberal mainliners + minority Protestants (if they were in equal #s to the White Evangelicals) voted for Obama by about a 63-36% margin...We know blacks went for Obama about 9.5+ out of 10...and Hispanics went for Obama 71-27%...the latter per CNN exit polling data

So the biggest religious contributers to Obama were:
* #1 Black Protestants
* #2 Hispanics & Jews (near 70%)
* #4 Religious Protestant Mainliners (probably would be found in upper 50s percentile)
* #5 Non-Hispanic Catholics (Considering the overall 50-48% included Hispanics, the non-Hispanic Catholic vote was probably close to half)

The only stat I heard was that those Catholics who attend church at least once per week went mostly to Romney. Those who attended less frequently went to Obama.

So it seems that half of Catholics did not “vote their conscience” but simply ignored it.

[firebrand]

An e-mail from the RJC says it was 69 percent, and they stress the percentage increase of Jews who voted Republican: from 22 percent 32 percent—an increase of 50 percent.

Are you from the future? What happens to the Jews and Catholics?

[ZULU]

Uhhh. Isn’t that pretty near everybody? Maybe Romney got 100% of the Zoroastrian vote.

more likely orthodox Jews who came of age.

Uhhh. Isn’t that pretty near everybody?

Like I said, Obama only got 21% of the Evangelical vote...(yeah, I know stupid to think that even 1 in 5 Evangelicals voted for Obama)...so, I suppose, that's kinda close to "near everybody"

Yet, here on an FR thread from earlier today, you have people trying to throw the people that held the greatest allegiance to the GoP under the bus...see Romney Loss - Evangelicals "Again" Stayed Home

Go figure

(Now, one could say that such Evangelicals were misguided in tossing their votes away on a loser who claimed to be a direct rival of THE God ... a pro-abort liberal RINO ... and that such Evangelicals have seared their conscience moving from pro-life voting to pro-abort voting, thereby tossing the pre-born under the bus...but perhaps they needed a lesson in reality -- that voting for the pragmatic utilitarian political relativist worldview isn't any better than the "don't-hold-to-your-convictions" worldview many militated against this past election season...

As a Catholic I am ashamed how many so called catholics voted for the abortionist in chief. I have decided to no longer tithe until the church decides once and for all to take a serious stand.
