Most religious groups in the United States, including mainline Protestant denominations like the United Methodist Church, have become more Republican since 2008, according to a political science researcher.

Ryan Burge of Eastern Illinois University analyzed data from the Cooperative Congressional Election Study, between 2008 and 2018, using two-year intervals. He looked at 34 different religious groups in the United States who had at least 100 respondents in the biannual survey.

In an analysis published last week by Religion in Public, Burge found that of the 34 faith traditions charted, 27 of them leaned more Republican in 2018 than they did in 2008. Only seven became more Democrat.

Burge noted that the average shift for all of the groups from 2008 to 2018 was +0.13 on the scale, with a positive change associated with becoming more Republican while a negative change meant becoming more Democrat…. (Excerpt from Michael Gryboski article in the Christian Post)

Jesus Christ you are truth and not a party. Open the eyes of the blind throughout this nation that we desire liberty and freedom. Set us free from the lies of the global and socialism parties. Your Kingdom come your will be done (in America) on earth as it is in heaven. Amen!

Thank you Lord God for developing and supporting the truth. Thank
you for making the truth as relevant as it is. Thank you for not
being on the side of a political party, but prospering individuals and groups who seek you and your will. Thank you for the clarity
you extend by making political issues obvious to those seeking you
and observing public affairs. Lay bare the intentions of rulers and leaders, O Lord.
