CLEP American Government, Chapter 39

Religion

Race and ethnicity can correlate with turnout and party support through history, discrimination, policy experience, residential patterns, group identity, organizational networks, and campaign mobilization. Broad labels conceal substantial diversity in national origin, generation, class, religion, geography, and political experience. "Latino voters" or "Asian American voters" do not form a single electorate with uniform preferences.

It does not mean all women prefer one party or that gender alone causes the pattern. Marital status, race, education, religion, age, economic experience, and issue priorities can change both its size and direction. The measured categories and survey mode also matter, especially when researchers compare a binary historical series with a population whose gender identities are more varied.

Religion includes affiliation, belief, practice, tradition, and organizational participation. Attendance can connect people to social networks and political messages; theology and group history can shape issue priorities.
