Notice NO ONE answers my question....HYPOCRITES!!

AndColofornian, your percentage doesn;t matter...only the AMOUNT of Evangelicals that "bothered" to vote for the Mormon matters...or maybe they stayed home because they didn't like the OTHER cult member, Ryan, who is Catholic!!!!

Deal with it....you PURE Evangelicals who won't vote for a Mormon or a Catholic helped to DESTROY this country.

Now now...

Some of us step away from the computer to get on with our REAL lives from time to time.

Please be patient with us slow to respond folks.

More assumptions, eh, Ann Archy?

Well, thus far the best source I've found that at least provides indicators as to how many Evangelicals voted is Pew Forum's exit polls: How the Faithful Voted: 2012 Preliminary Analysis

Per Pew Forum's exit polls, were white Evangelicals a greater part of the 2012 voting block vs. 2008 and 2004? Or less?

Answer? Well, I just crunched the rough #s based upon Pew Forum's exit polls...and more -- not less -- white Evangelicals voted in 2012...than either in 2008 or 2004.

It looks like almost 31 million white Evangelicals voted in 2012; compared to about 30 million in 2008, and compared to about 26 & 1/4 million in 2004.

How did white Evangelicals compare to other voter segments...in staying home or not?

Answer: They were 24% of the voting block in 2012; 23% in 2008; 21% in 2004.

Which religious voter groups turned out significantly less in 2012? (a) OTHER white Protestants -- not Evangelicals; (b) white Catholics

Per Pew Forum white Protestants dropped from 42% of the pie in 2008 to 39% in 2012...keep in mind, tho, that the mainline denominations are "aging" & unless a Dem "resurrects" a dead voter, they don't vote from the grave...

Still, 42% of about 132,654 (2008) vs. 39% of about 128 million is a drop-off of over 4 million voters!

Also, white Catholics dropped from 19% in 2008 to 18% in 2012...Because the voter pool was smaller in 2012, that's about 2 million LESS white Catholics turning out...(I estimate a drop from just over 25 million to just over 23 million)...obviously some of them died and weren't replaced by younger Catholic voters.

Now that I answered your false accusations on this thread -- and we know that false accusations are relatives of those issued by the overseer of hell -- let's deal with your next accusation:

...you PURE Evangelicals who won't vote for a Mormon or a Catholic helped to DESTROY this country.

Well, guess what...at least three FREEPERs posted threads re: Mark Levin's radio content...see this one, for example: Mark Levin Gives "Unvarnished Truth" On Romney Loss

Now what did Levin have to say about Republicans like Ann Archy:

Levin: Now I hear we're called 'purists.' Conservatives are called purists. The very people who keep nominating moderates, now call us purists the way the left calls us purists. Yeah, things like liberty, and property rights, individual sovereignty, and the Constitution, and capitalism. We're purists now. And we have to hear this crap from conservatives, or pseudo-conservatives, Republicans.

Levin calls accusations like yours as "crap"...and that these comments are issued by "pseudoconservatives" like you!!!
