If the voter is black, latino or asian, they are much more likely to vote Dem, regardless of their church/denomination.

If the church/denomination has a higher percentage of these groups, they are more likely to vote Dem.

There are also socio-economic features as well as married/unmarried female for example.

Race/ethnicity, social-economic, age, marital status, geographic location, cultural influences.. all of these overwhelm church factors.

Money, or the lack thereof, has a strong correlation the type of church one IDs with, and race/ethnicity in particular is primary factor in votes, and other things do as well, but the issue is that comparing Catholics and Evangelicals in each class then we almost always see more conservative views among the latter. Thank God it is not like France, but both are decreasing.
