Yep, white evangelicals voted dt in.
Thanks a bunch, guys and gals.
Here's a survey done by the Public Religion Research Institute and The Atlantic, written up in The Atlantic December issue and reported by the Religious News Service:
Two-thirds of white evangelicals said they’re “excited” or “satisfied” about the [election] outcome, compared to less than half of white mainline Protestants and white Catholics and less than one-third of people who are religiously unaffiliated.

In my own opinion, it was the abortion issue that did it. The opportunity to move the Supreme Court in a pro-life direction overrode the natural impulse against voting for a man who boasts of groping women.
I guess not many of us progressive evangelicals made it into the survey.
