“I suspect that 53% is a pretty low figure. I suspect that the anti-Evangelical/Conservative bias is much higher than that.”
This is a very high percentage to outright admit to this prejudice. There has to be many, many more that hold these biases but would not publicly acknowledge them.
Probably true. The numbers are in inverse relationship to what is considered PC today. Bias against Jews is a no-no but bias against Evangelicals is in. Mormans are second because of the strength of Romney in the Republican race.
Like you, I doubt this reflects true feelings.
