Catholic voters helped elect Democratic candidate Joe Biden as the next U.S. president, as more people belonging to the denomination shrugged off an often hostile clergy and key issues like abortion rights, a recent survey found.
While President Donald Trump won support from eight out of every 10 white evangelical Christian voters, Catholics were split nearly down the middle between him and Biden, according to data from AP VoteCast. Fifty percent of Catholics backed Trump while 49 percent favored Biden.
In the 2020 election, Catholic voters accounted for a significant 22 percent of the electorate—a crucial demographic for either candidate to secure. But Biden, whom the Associated Press and other media outlets declared winner on Saturday, clearly benefited from the group.
Among white Catholics, 57 percent backed Trump and 42 percent supported Biden, VoteCast found. This is a decrease from Trump's 2016 numbers among the demographic, when he won 64 percent of their vote compared to Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton's 31 percent, according to a Pew Research Center analysis...

CINO
Live Catholics or deceased Catholics?
Demographic analysis of an election with millions of fraudulent voters...
is doubling down on fraud.
Pathetic.
I’m a Catholic and I did NOT vote for him. In fact, I just got off the phone with Omaha World Herald and cancelled my subscription. When they asked for a reason I said I couldn’t support a paper that endorsed a pedophile and a Communist for President.
Not practicing Catholics... any more the Andrew Weissman is a practicing jew (he’s not, but is the k word).
Cuomo is not a Catholic. And yes see Vigano’s letter, and see the Jesuit queer cabal backing up a Marxist jesuit Pope whose cardinals are... buggering each other. Oh yeah— those kind of catholics would support biden.
one confession and your all done..... No. It will take many Concordats to get these abominations out of the true healing history of the good Catholic Church.
Some more Catholics backed Trump than not.
How did Jews do?
The catholic side of my family are all pro abort pro gay marriage screaming mobs who proudly vote democrat - and are pillars of their local parish
With a Marxist Pope guiding these voters, this shouldn’t be any surprise.
screaming libs. i hate autocorrect
I don’t doubt that there are lot of hijinks going on with the polls and the statistics on how many Catholics actually voted for Biden, but I do definitely buy the idea that a higher percentage of Catholics voted for Biden than did Protestants and some Christians of other types of Christian churches.
In my own town, it is the Catholics who got on the school boards and town council and ushered in same-sex bathrooms and the like.
The political catholics... I mean , they are flocking to the snake at the tree of knowledge... making politics against God instead of loving...
Liar spewing lies.
the only thing that *helped elect Joe Biden* was massive, bigger than ever seen, organized, and coordinated voter fraud.
That’s too bad. I saw and heard this on Catholic radio. Our clergy during the Revolution actually took up arms to fight the British. Couldn’t the current clergy do less to fight obvious tyranny?
I can’t even wrap my head around that.
Sometimes autocorrect blurts out the real truth.
:)
When I went to the baptism of my cousins last child the entire homily was an obama commercial ( yes it was around election time)
That’s why the Republican, pro-life candidate, in the Georgia runoffs will not be a shoo-in for that senate seat.
OMG.
Be glad a lightning strike didn’t take you out.
:D
I thought of you the other day when somebody posted an article ripping on Mosby.
Really pissed me off.
Been annoyed ever since.
