WASHINGTON – While atheists, young people and minorities are still attracted to the Democratic Party in big numbers, three other groups are moving in big numbers to the Republican side, according to a New Pew Research Center poll.
Those three groups are whites, Christians and older voters.
The result of this continuing shift is that the percentages of Democrat-leaning voters and Republican-leaning voters remain almost exactly the same as in 2012 – 48 percent for Dems and 44 percent for the GOPers.
Another result, according to the poll, is that the demographic profiles look more different than any time in the last 25 years.
The people deserve better and are starting to see the truth.
ReplyDeleteI am a "free thinker" and I do not subscribe to the liberal ideology so I must take umbrage with the authors statement regarding atheists migrating to the democratic party. Outside of Jews and Christians, atheists are just as deployable to Muslims and deserve to be killed as well.
ReplyDeleteThe thing about an Athiest that most people seem to either forget or not realize is that we believe that you only get one shot at life and we have to make the most of it. We believe that all life is sacred meaning that no one person is better than another because of their belief. However, we do believe in defending ourselves and if someone is trying to kill or harm you for your lack of belief then they should expect to be met with the same attitude.
Just my two cents.
