Democrat primary
*The results of the Democratic Caucus are not yet official. Commentary Democrat Obama won Protestants (including Other Christians) vote by a modest margin, 52 percent to 46 percent. He also won nearly two-thirds of the Others and 57 percent of the Nones. But although all of those constituted 64 percent of the Democratic electorate, the margins were not enough to offset the Catholic vote, two-thirds of which went to Clinton. Less than a quarter of Catholic voters were white; 58 percent of them chose Clinton—one point lower than the percentage of white Protestants who went for her. In a word, the Latino Catholic vote going for Clinton approached 70 percent. Republican Among the attendance categories, McCain won the Monthlies and less by over 30 percentage points, the Weeklies by over 20. Huckabee won only the More-than-weeklies, and by a big margin: 60 percent to 33 percent. This is an expression of his base of support in the frequent-attending portion of the evangelical community. Huckabee won all evangelicals by the narrower margin of 49 percent to 42 percent. If Catholics were bothered by Pastor John Hagee’s endorsement of McCain, their voting didn’t show it. They preferred McCain 59 percent to 25 percent. (Protestants—including Other Christians—split 49-42 in his favor.) |
