Christian voters swayed 2024 presidential election, data show

Michie · Nov 20, 2024

Self-identified Christian voters are being credited with making a difference in the outcome of the 2024 presidential election as data show that the faithful overwhelmingly backed President-elect Donald Trump, according to a new report.

George Barna, director of the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University, published a report last week highlighting the findings of his organization’s post-election research conducted in the three days following the Nov. 5 election. Data included in the report is based on “extensive interviews with a national sample of 2,000 voting-age adults.” The survey had a margin of error of +/- 3 percentage points.

The main finding from the report is that self-identified Christians helped deliver the White House to Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, who defeated Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris: “Among self-identified Christians, President Trump won a 56% share of their vote. And because Christians represented 72% of the voters who turned out, their support for the re-elected Republican made the difference in the race.”

Hopefully, things will go well with him, or at least not horribly wrong. "Christian" will always be associated w/him, which is one reason I wish politicians would keep this faith, or any faith for that matter, out of their mouths. They tend to sully everything they touch. So many Christians think he is doing them favors, but he could become the bane of their existence.

All this whining that Christians do about being persecuted, which is nonsense in this country, could become a stark reality, and rabidly supporting people like him is one way to realize that reality.

For the majority of Christian voters, it was very clear to us that Donald Trump was a much better alternative as compared to Kamala Harris.

Trump works more for the interests of Christians as a group than the Democrats do. He won't be perfect and won't be as good as right leaning Christians want but he will be better than Kamala.

There is concern about whether the Democratic leadership is competent. It is at least rumored that they were not in touch with people who they thought would vote their way . . . possibly because they are not competent to evaluate how they stand with people, and not competent to identify and deal with real priorities.

It looks like the Democratic leadership donated the presidency to Donald . . . the first time he ran > they ran Hillary who to me did not seem qualified. And now they have donated the presidency to Donald . . . again.

Donald had a chance to get a vacation, maybe, before continuing. And may be he did not need to convince the voters, if the Democrats convinced everyone who voted for Donald.

Ones say Kamala can get more publicity and then she can win. But Barack, to me, seemed like an unknown who "got in on a speech". So, I suppose, if this is correct, the Democrats can find out how to select and offer a qualified candidate, and then things could get really interesting. But may be "it takes one to know one".

I can understand what you are saying, but since religion is a personal relationship with God, it's hard not to mention it.

As far as Christians "whining" about being persecuted, plenty of Churches are being set on fire or are being vandalized with graffiti and such. It's not nonsense. It's happening. And no, it's nowhere near as bad as it is in the Middle East, but persecution IS persecution. Yes, Christians should be grateful we live in a free country.

My opinion only

I can appreciate you have an opinion on this, but I still think it's wrong (not that what I think matters). I think it's a fact that the vast majority of Christians in this country are not under any persecution by non-believing citizens, at least not by any reasonable understanding of the word. What most consider persecution is not getting things their way *They're persecuting us because we can't make everyone say Christian prayers in school or people live in ways with which we don't agree.* That's not persecution. It's simply disagreement. What little persecution there might be certainly does not justify the victim stance of so many Christians. We should be strong, uber-strong actually, but we whine about trivialities or things that have nothing to do with us. It's not a good look.

Ah, thanks for clarifying. I can definitely agree with you there.
