Looking up at all the maps uploaded by my friends here, I think it is already very clear that Religion and Politics have a strong co-relation. They say that most of the religious people go towards being Conservative while the no -religious people tend to be Democratic and I totally agree with it now. But that's after i looked over the surveys myself. I mean however the maps may be like, the co-relation could have just been coincidental.
I researched up a lot of surveys given online which took the opinion of different voting citizens of America. The one I felt the best one was by "Gallup". It took a survey of over 30,000 people and came up with the fact that America's religious intensity still continues to be the major predictor of party identification. According to the survey,Republicans outnumbered the Democrats by 12 percent among Americans who are classified as highly religious, while Democrats outnumber Republicans by 30 percent among those who are religious.
I have also attached the survey with this post for you all to see. It talks not only about the religious voting people but also breaks it down according to the different races.
