How did the religious vote in 2012?

Nov. 8, 2012 12:55pm Meredith Jessup

Of all the self-identified “religious” voters in America, President Obama won the majority on Tuesday. Here’s the breakdown, via HuffPo:

Despite Obama’s “War on Religion” with mandated contraception coverage which runs contrary to the Catholic Church and lack of support for our Israeli allies, Catholics and Jews both turned out in pretty big numbers for the president.

Then again, so did the “religiously unaffiliated.”

Notice it was the Latino vote that pulled the catholics toward Obama. Before you abandon your views on immigration to whoo the Latino vote, take some of Rush’s wisdom. The Latino’s(minus the Cubans) vote to punish the rich man above all else. They don’t really care about abortion laws. They are family oriented and in general do not part-take in it. They just voted in California for more crippling taxes on industry in a vain effort to deal with a 660 billion dollar deficit. Nor do they care about immigration as the mighty Krauthammer would suggest. A better life awaits them on welfare in America than one working in Mexico. They love their Santa Obama!

What the heck are the Jews thinking, the way Obama treats Israel and he gets 69% of the Jewish vote.

I don’t understand how Obama could get reelected it’s total idiocy. The religious vote should have all gone to Romney, other than unaffiliated and Black Protestants/other Christians because they just voted for him because he’s black.

Less Mormons voted for Romney in ’12 than voted for Bush in ’04.

  *I mean less Mormons percentage-wise; I don’t know the actual number who voted.

I’m surprised with those numbers…especially after being in mass and have a letter read to us from our Bishop to be wise and conscious of our Credo and have the understanding of what do we stand for as followers of Christ. I do know for a fact that at least in my county we were 60 to 40 for Romney.

With Obama’s clear lack of support for Israel, why would even one Jewish person vote for Obama ? If O’s “plans” move forward, it is possible that life in America could become intolerable for Jews and they just might HAVE TO move to Israel ! Black American Christians were advised by many of their religous leaders of the dangers of voting for Obama, yet Blacks voted 95 % to 97 % for Obama ! Explain THAT, please.

  Maybe because his “clear lack if support for Israel” only exists inside the Conservative bubble, and not in the real world.

I’m ashamed of the Jewish voters. Don’t they realize the way things are going they will probably be the first to visit the FEMA camps. I expect us white working Christians will be right behind them

  Seriously, for the past four years (even before Obama’s first day in office), you nuts have been harping on about the dreaded FEMA camps. Don’t you get tired of being wrong? I swear to Jeebus it will be twenty years from now, and Obama won’t be involved in any facet of government, and you people will still be saying “Watch out, Obama’s gonna put us in FEMA camps”.

I have to wonder why the news media and even the Blaze has been mum on the Muslim vote count, especially since they are so entrenched in the states with the most electoral votes. They want to be part of our society and so they should be counted or do the feds have everyone scared to bring it up.
