Since 1992 the Republican Party has maintained a healthy advantage in Protestant and other Evangelical Christian voting blocks, winning by no less than 9% (Dole vs. Clinton in 1996) and as much as 19% (Bush vs. Kerry in 2004). However, with Republican Presidential candidates having lost the popular vote in 5 of the last 6 elections, and amid an escalating Latino voting presence that has traditionally sided more heavily with Democrats, Republicans are on the proverbial ropes, trying to avoid yet another political knockout. With fears they are also losing ground on the Evangelical and moderate Christian vote, it appears there is big trouble ahead. The current front runner the majority of the summer, Donald Trump, has been on record questioning a key tenet of Christianity: repentance. Try as the Republicans may to gain ground, “the party’s challenges are only severely escalating given the mass exodus of Christian voters who are bucking the traditional conservative stronghold,” asserts Christian Democrats of America’s Founder and Executive Director, Christina Forrester. “The GOP has depended heavily on the faithfulness of the Christian vote and on the fact that they have a stronghold on the ‘values’ and ‘Christian’ narrative. But it appears that monopoly is rapidly diminishing.”
