Millions of Christians in the United States indicated in a study released on Monday that they are not likely to vote in the upcoming election this November, signaling a potential problem for the Republican Party. Just over half of interviewees (51%) in a Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University study, who identified as "people of faith," responded that they are likely to vote in the presidential election between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.

If that's the case, then they will be happy with the election. They will get the government they deserve.

A POTUS is a CEO. Not necessarily a moral leader. Giggles will cause an economic depression and WWIII. President Trump will give us peace and prosperity. No choice.

Keep in mind that the media defines Jehovah's Witnesses as “Christians.” This cult has several million followers and does not permit their members to vote.

Many Christian fundamentalists tend to think they’re not “of this world” although they live in it. I have met many with the viewpoint of being separate from secular matters and being more “heavenly-minded.” To me, that’s a foolish and dangerous mindset; it’s also monastic. Trump has been friendly to Israel, in contrast to the Democrat leadership. He, certainly, has not been antagonistic to people of faith, especially Christians. Vote for the man who has done the best job of president, more than all the other predecessors since Reagan.

Sowing the seeds to kill two birds with one stone. Make Christians hated scapegoats, and explain away the cheat. The other article on this site had the fantastic assertion that 104 million "people of faith", which supposedly includes 32 million Christians *MAY* abstain from voting. Hello!!!!!! Anybody home!!!!!!!! Think, McFly!!!!!!!!!

It is a fact that many conservatives simply do not vote. Have seen it in my home state too many times. My advice to people who refuse to vote - you have to live in the ruins with the rest of us.

I wonder what % of atheists don't vote? Barbers? Postal workers? Unfortunately, not voting is pretty common. People feel like their red vote in a blue state is not important. People feel like their vote on a dominion voting machine will be manipulated. If nothing else, it makes it harder for them to cheat enough to swing a state to blue. But sitting at home and not voting means you have no right to complain about anything in our government!

Most churches are under title 501c3, where they can't talk politics in church or they will lose their non profit status. BUT, if you are AL Sharpton or other DemonRats pastors, you can do whatever you want and say whatever you want to sway the congregation in politics and not be persuaded. Maybe if the members of a Christian Church can get up and speak out during the worship service, that way the Pastor is not involved. We need ever vote possible. Pray for our Country.

Voting does not convey a license to complain. We all have that right as Americans regardless of voting history. There are people out there who's personal integrity will not allow them to vote for a demon just because a worse demon is running on the other side. They see only one answer available to the individual: dont participate. From the movie War Games..."Strange game. The only winning move is not to play". I will be choosing my own mugger in November like most LDotters, but I'm under no illusions. In winner take all states almost half the votes DONT count.

Its difficult to fight evil. Voting against Dimocrats is the easiest way to do a small part to keep evil from surrounding you. Dimocrats are pure evil. Vote against it.

Mark 12:17: 'And Jesus said, 'Give to Ceasar what is Ceasar's and to God, what is God's.' In other words, religious people need to engage with the mundane, in worldly matters. Consider what's a stake. If you believe that Jesus won't return if the Jews don't control Jerusalem, then you and your family need to vote to make sure Israel is not destroyed. Just as Pharoah was not a friend to Joseph, Kamala Harris is not a friend to Israel. Vote accordingly.

They are talking to the social club Christians. The ones who tolerate biblical heresies because they are socially popular - like LGBTQ+ and transgender ism. They don't vote for anyone. They never did.

Nissan said it could sell information about drivers and passengers’ sexual activity, intelligence and health diagnosis to data brokers, law enforcement agencies and other companies. German manufacturer Volkswagen said it could record drivers’ voices to profile them for targeted ads...the very fact of being a passenger in one of its cars implies consenting to their privacy policy.

Former Fox News host Geraldo Rivera has condemned former president Donald Trump in a blistering message where he called him a loser as he endorsed Kamala Harris. Rivera took to X, formerly Twitter, to share a lengthy statement lambasting his former friend Trump for his unwillingness to accept the results of the 2020 election. 'Former President Trump is a sore loser who cannot be trusted to honor the Constitution,' the veteran journalist wrote on Monday. 'That is why I am voting for Kamala Harris to be our 47th President.' Geraldo recalled Trump being a 'loyal friend' to him during his presidency, which he called 'underrated.'

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) is back on the “Orange Man Bad” circuit less than a month before the presidential election. During an appearance on NBC News’ “Meet the Press,” she issued frantic warnings about former President Donald Trump going full fascist if he gets reelected. The former lawmaker told host Kristen Welker that the former president “believes he will be immune for anything he does once he’s in office,” referencing a recent Supreme Court ruling to that effect. Cheney predictably chose to back Vice President Kamala Harris and has been on the campaign trail with the candidate. “He will not respect the rulings of our courts,

I’m so old I remember when we learned about advertising fakery by ordering stuff like sea horses and x-ray vision glasses from the back of comic books. Younger generations caught on when they compared what they’d seen in the TV ads with the actual products. For voters this time around all they have to do is scan X online. The sea horse ads were better fakes than the Harris-Walz team is churning out. Of course, there is the candidates’ utter failure in public appearances -- such as they are -- to show Harris-Walz viewers that they are phony, unserious contenders for the highest offices in the land.

Washington — Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said Sunday that disinformation surrounding the election, along with false claims about the government's response to recent hurricanes, is "extremely damaging." "It causes people to lose confidence in the integrity of the election system, and we need people in positions of authority to actually communicate accurate information to the voting public," Mayorkas said on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan" on Sunday. The comments came in response to new CBS News polling, which showed that 65% of Trump voters believe the Biden administration has tried to increase the number of migrant crossings at the southern border.

A third assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump was thwarted at the last minute Saturday when local cops stopped a man armed with guns and fake passes outside his rally at Coachella Valley, the local sheriff said. The suspect was caught about a mile from the rally venue with a phony-entry pass, according to police. He was also carrying a loaded shotgun, handgun and high capacity magazine. “We probably stopped another assassination attempt,” Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco said. The suspect, identified as Vem Miller, was intercepted by police at a checkpoint about a half-mile from the rally entrance. He was carrying a fake phony press and VIP passes.

The scandal engulfing CBS' 60 Minutes over its edited interview with Kamala Harris has turbocharged fears that the Democrat is being shepherded into the White House by a liberal media increasingly desperate to cover for her shortcomings. The presidential race has been dogged by allegations of media bias since the moment Harris unseated Joe Biden as the Democrat pick in the wake of his disastrous debate with Donald Trump in June. Apart from glowing magazine profiles and softball interviews with handpicked reporters, the VP has largely side-stepped the media exposure that candidates traditionally allow.

I’ve long found it peculiar that, way back in the 1990s, Tim Walz was taking the lead in promoting the new “Gay-Straight Alliance” club at the school where he worked. Usually, that’s something an openly gay teacher would do. However, when it’s an ostensibly straight teacher, my radar pings. But my pinging radar means nothing. What may also mean nothing is that two citizen journalists are alleging that they’ve found young men speaking anonymously about the fact that Walz groomed them while they were under his aegis in high school.
