Latter Day Saints only religious group to grow their Democratic vote

[lafayette]

A possible pony for Latter-day Saints on the political left:

Between national exit polls conducted by Fox News in 2020 and 2024, Latter-day Saints go from 23% for Biden to 33% Harris — a jump of 10%. Strikingly, out of all the religious groups polled, they are the only group in which Harris/the Democrats gained in the overall vote share. This could possibly be the greatest turnout of Latter-day Saints for a Democratic candidate since Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964.

Do note the American mainstream religious groups, including the LDS, went solidly for Trump.

There's a church of them in my AO.....As the church grows you see a small uptick in dem voters in that prescient.

They are an odd bunch, armed to the teeth with nice toys but always vote dem....Something to do with Mexican immigration I was told by another Mormon I know.

They are one of the few religions where character matters on Election Day.

They are one of the few religions where character matters on Election Day.

As shown by their 63% support of Trump.

but always vote dem.

Total garbage.

Utah is the most conservative state in the union.

Salt Lake has turned into a hole, but the rest of the state is as deep red as you can get.

That none number sticks out more than others.

The only bigger number are the Jews.

Up 50% in four years and that will continue

Luiza, don't attack religion. It's not American to act like a Jacobin or whatever you are in Europe.
