There is no Social Right or Religious Right Party siphoning off votes in critical elections

***BZZZZZZTTTT!*** Thank you for playing.

Can you document that the Constitution Party pulled enough votes to change the outcome in any elections? Hmmm? I'm waiting.

In 2 Senate races, the Liberaltarians pulled enough votes away from the Republicans to give the Dems those seats and thereby control of the Senate, putting an end to any chance of more originalist SCOTUS judges. Thanks a lot.

There is also no evidence that the "religious right" deserted the Republican Party. One of the best predictors of Republican voting continued to be regular church attendance.
