Those who rarely or never attend Church or religious services plan to vote for Senator John Kerry over President George Bush by a 50% to 34% margin. At the other extreme, those who attend Church at least once a week will vote heavily in favor of Bush (59% to 34%).

A Rasmussen Report survey found the same pattern in the race for Congress where the unchurched favor Democrats by a 49% to 28% margin. Regular Churchgoers say they'll vote Republican by a 45% to 31% margin.

The latest Rasmussen Reports survey also found a split based upon religious affiliation. Evangelical Christians support President Bush 66% to 30%. Other Protestant's favor Bush 57% to 36%. Senator Kerry leads among everybody else 54% to 33%.

Fifty-five percent (55%) of Evangelical Christians say they are Republicans while 25% are Democrats.

Looked at from a different perspective, 29% of political conservatives are Evangelical Christians along with 14% or moderates and 9% of political liberals.

These differences mirror differences between the audiences of Christian radio stations and National Public Radio.
