That's like excluding unsaved people from church.

I don't know any church that excludes anyone who is not disrupptive from attending but only believers may be members and leaders.Their is a difference.
Well, the word "church" has become corrupted to mean a place where people go on Sunday. Some are Christians, some are not, but they go to 'church.' The Bible's definition of a church is those who have been saved, born again, and are dedicated worshipers of God...God's family. Sounds like what this minister is trying to do is tell his people, 'if you're not following Godly principles then you don't belong here.' But it's not for him to say that if you voted one way or the other you're not saved. Lots of folks are being sanctified, and that's a long progression at times. I say he's out of line here. I think if he teaches scripture and teaches it faithfully those who don't support Christians tenants will just leave automatically.
