61% of Black Protestant Pastors Voting for Biden

(Lifeway Research) Almost all Protestant pastors plan to participate in the 2020 election, but around a quarter still haven’t decided who will get their presidential vote.

In the latest election survey, Nashville-based LifeWay Research found 98% of Protestant pastors in the U.S. say they plan to vote in the presidential election.

When they cast their ballot, 53% of pastors likely to vote say they plan to do so for Donald Trump. Around 1 in 5 (21%) say they are voting for Joe Biden. A similar percentage (22%) say they are still undecided. About 4% say they are voting for a different candidate.

“Pastors vote like any other American,” said Scott McConnell, executive director of LifeWay Research. “The large number of pastors who are still undecided may reflect difficulty in finding a candidate who aligns with their overall beliefs. Also, some pastors are intensely private about their political preferences and may prefer to respond ‘undecided’ than to even confidentially share their voting intentions.”

  1. You can’t call yourself a Christian Pastor and vote for the party that celebrates slaughtering babies. People need to be very discerning in choosing what church they attend.

    1. Don’t forget theft (redistribution of wealth) and lawlessness (open borders) among others. JD Hall says it best, “The Democratic party platform is nothing more than a list of things God hates.”
