Do you know the break down of the LDS vote in the Reid vs Angle election in Nevada?

I've never seen anything specific on that.

I know Reid had Mormon support in Nevada; the question was: How deep was it?

The demographic that made a huge difference in the 2010 Nevada race was the Hispanic vote. Hispanics were 18% of Nevada -- 2.5 times bigger than Mormons there -- and they voted for Reid by a whopping 90-8%.

I googled and googled, everything is from before the dang election, and just speculation as to what was going to happen via Reid and LDS(most of it seems to speculate he was going to lose the LDS vote, while he had support from some older LDS). It’s ridiculous. I can’t find one stupid follow up story that says what happened, exept some dumb blurb from the huffingglue post saying Reid had a lot of registered republicans vote for him, with no data to back it up. Looking at the hubbub about the issue before the election, you would think that it would be easy to find.

Of course it could just be my awesome internet search skills too, but good grief.

I did find one thing that said LDS made up 25% of the people who voted in the republican caucus, even though they are only 7-9% of the state’s population. I wonder what % of voters are LDS in the general elections.
