re: #168 iossarian

Is that actually the case (that they don’t ask African Americans for their religion)?

Seems a bit surprising, but then pollsters seem to report “white protestant” as a religious category, so maybe they don’t bother with AA religious subdivisions, as you say.

I got polled twice (post election) while here (in the south) and after a few basic questions asked if I was affiliated with a religion ((in 30+ years of voting in the north, not once))

I have a neighbor who is black as well as a friend who is black and ran for local office. Neither was asked the religion question

((this is why this topic interests me because we, me, the neighbor and the friend, had had this discussion) ((( btw ,, the neighbor is a Dem and the friend who ran for office ran as a Repub)))
