Catholics actually voted against pres. O. in some states, but I have never seen a breakdown of what % of Catholics who voted did so in what state. For instance the Catholics in Ohio, Pa and NJ voted against Obama by slim margins, but in Ca and NY pres. O. won the Catholic vote. The weird thing is that in some red states Obama won the Catholic vote, while in some blue or swing states he lost it(NJ,Pa., Ohio, Minn.). I can’t see him getting more than he did last time with the mandate ruckus the bishops are puting up.

Which certainly fits with all the Catholics I know in NY. They're as liberal as they come.
And with the sizeable Catholic population in NY, if the Catholics voted conservatively, it most certainly could swing the elections both at the state and national levels.
