Exit polls pigeonhole Democrats of faith in New Hampshire.

In last night’s New Hampshire exit polls, voters “from both parties were asked about their church attendance and if they were Protestant, Catholic, Mormon, Other Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Something else, or None.” But as the Faith in Public Life blog points out, “only Republicans were asked if they were born-again or evangelical Christian. Asking only Republicans about their religion shows that the media is still stuck on the outdated and false notion that evangelical Christians are the GOP’s political property.” (The same thing happened in Iowa.)
