Christian Leader Ralph Reed: “We’re Going to Turn Out the Biggest Christian Vote” in the 2018 Mid-terms in Modern History!!!
Ralph Reed was the first executive director of the Christian Coalition and now is the current head of the Faith and Freedom Coalition. He recently spoke at the Gateway Eagle Counsel and shared how his group is reaching out to over 26 million Christian Americans in highly contested states in the mid-term election and to encourage them to vote for Republicans in their states. ———————— “And let me tell you what’s going to happen. In North Dakota, in Missouri, in Montana, Indiana, Florida, Nevada, Arizona, Tennessee, now Texas, where they’re trying to take out Ted Cruz, and by the way they can forget it, in all those key Senate races and about 40 House races, we’re going to turn out the biggest Christian vote that has been seen in a mid-term election in modern political history.
Now in 2016, 27% of the entire vote was self identified evangelical Christians. They voted 81% for Donald Trump, that’s is the highest share of the vote anyone has ever received and they voted only 16% for Hillary Clinton, that’s the lowest percent anyone has ever received.”

I saw that when I glanced at Drudge. Irritating but hopefully will galvanize even more Repubs to get out there and vote.
Absolutely!
Don’t lose the war over a battle!
If he blinks, we’ve lost!
The conventional wisdom is that Democrats utilize early and mail-in voting because they're young and hip while old, stodgy Republicans wait until Election Day to vote.
This might've been true at one time but I don't think it's true anymore. I voted early in 2016 for the first time and plan on doing so again next week. It was just too easy and convenient.
Announced in our service yesterday that our church had registered 28 new voters before the deadline. Mostly 18-20 year olds. If this is happening in the Northwest where Christians are notoriously lethargic there could indeed be a massive evangelical Red Wave gathering.
I heard this from a guy in IN on the ground who told me (to my surprise) that a lot of IN evangelicals stayed home in 2016.
“Not now. After Kavanaugh they are all coming out.”
“Fox is not to be trusted. They slant left too.”
Fox was slanted to the left a while ago. Now Fox is about 90% bent over left. I was going to record the interview with Kavanaughs tonight, but figure Martha McCallum won’t give them a fair shake. Could be looking for her Megyn Kelly Moment.
“Yes” x 7. All of those.
what is the Christian vote?
many so called christians vote for
. people who advocate for abortion.
. people who have been inviting illegals to come to this country.
. people who don’t like anyone to own a gun.
. people who care more about the earth than the people on it.
. people who want to have more govt services/handouts.
. handouts for themselves.
Many other christians beleive in voting opposite those things.
If Trump blinks on this caravan junket, he has lost my vote!!
/////////////////////////
And your strategy accomplishes what exactly?
21months to stop invasions. If they step in I won’t vote no matter how you characterize it

Not to vote is to vote for your enemy
Call it the evangelical vote, which overwhelmingly broke for Trump in 2016. Evangelicals hardly ever vote for any of the stuff you listed.
Here come the Threatening Freepers. Not voting is what LOSERS do. Anyway, he is not running this time, but is working tirelessly to help our side keep the Senate and hopefully the house. Tirelessly..
Amen, and thank you for posting that.
Unreal the reminders needed here, sometimes.
I believe that. Many Christians were unsure of trump. That’s changed now.
Amen to that...
I hope so. Franklin Graham is supporting the actions of the current POTUS.
I am so sad when I see some Christian writers and artists attack DJT. One in particular whom I listened to, supported and even met once has tweeted out that Trump is a racist. Sickening. Lots to bemoan, but God is good all the time.
My Redeemer Lives, no matter what a man may say.
letting people come in is complicit with the enemy. Now what?
I will not support those who allow illegals to walk in and force themselves upon us. How much longer will you? This and jobs were my number one reasons for voting for trump. So characterize it anyway you want. I will not be duped by weak politicians and the republicans are weak. Also Trump could have already used the defense budget to build the wall.
So my vote rests on his action here these next few weeks, at least for this election. You can turn your back all you want and call me whatever. I stand on my principles.
I saw Ralph at the swearing in ceremony for Kavanaugh at the White House. Even saw James Dobson there and some notable Charismatic leaders.
Folks....believe little of what you hear. Most of what you see.
