A national poll out Thursday shows Hillary Clinton ahead of Donald Trump by double-digits. The poll also breaks down support by religion and finds that white Protestants are Trumps most supportive demographic.
The Public Religion Research Institute found that Clinton leads nationwide among registered voters with 48 percent, Trump follows with 35 percent and two percent backed Libertarian Gary Johnson. This poll, unlike others, broke down support for each candidate by registered voters religious preferences.
Trumps support is strongest among white evangelical Protestants. Sixty-two percent of them back Trump and 23 percent support Clinton. Trump also leads among white mainline Protestants with 47 percent. Clinton follows at 37 percent.
Clinton leads with every other religious group polled Catholics, black Protestants, and unaffiliated. PRRI did not poll Jews or Muslims....

Ignore all media
Get Out The Vote
It is said like it is a bad thing!
Uh huh. Just after Hillary’s KKK ad and her alt right speech, Trump’s number one demographic turns out to be evil white Christian heteronormative misogynist Nazi KKK members. Whaddaya know? I’m waiting for the inevitable “Nazis Love Trump!” headlines.
In our "diverse", labeled society, white Protestants are not a favored group. Therefore, they are "bad."
Tell me again how the left is unifying.
Even Al Gore said about e. pluribus unum "Out of one, many." That's their game plan.
Over it is bad that is why white Protestants are no longer represented on the Supreme Court. The founding fathers are rolling in their graves.
first, it says she has a 13 point lead, second, last time i checked all of my family and friend are italian roman catholic and voting for trump
Because she's so popular! And such a great speaker!
The media re racist seeing as they think that blacks, hispanics etc are not bright enough to think for themselves.
It is the left which always keeps harping on about diversity and yet are quick to point out a minority while offending the majority. SO much for tolerance form the left.
Well; I guess the polls have to say something about somebodys religion in this election.
Do they mention that Hildabeast’s support comes from godless communists, nazi’s, and stalinists?
Some day, non-White Protestants will be a larger part of America's Protestant population and -- if other trends hold -- a larger share of the Protestant vote will go to Democrats.
It is true, though, that while White Catholics and Mainline Protestants show the same level of support for Trump, those White Catholics are more likely than Mainline Protestants to vote for Hillary (Mainline or non-Evangelical Protestants are more likely to be undecided don't knows).
Non-religious voters -- those who identify with no religious group -- are overwhelmingly for Hillary, and many of them grew up Protestant.
My kinfolk are also Italian Roman Catholic and live in the New York area.
About 2 to 1 they support Trump....a few cousins like Hillary....something is wrong with them.
Made to order poll to match Hillary’s latest meme.
Newest poll???? June 15-26? That’s two months ago. Newest my Democrat Donkey!
Well,given that white Christians (not just Protestants) built this country,it could be vigorously argued that this is a *good* thing.
Send the boys to visit them. :)
No kidding! I love this society race is the single most explosive issue in our nations history and everyone is pretending it really does not matter. Of course whites will support Trump and Blacks will support Hillary. Lord!
What a total joke this is. Can you immagine the leftist leanings of this gaggle?
Oh, the evil white protestant vote! The people who created this nation! The people who sustain this nation although they, like my fellow Catholics, are not holding fast as well as they should be. Yeah, that’s the ticket what’s wrong with this country!
