"Faith Voters" Are Not Why Democrats Won on Tuesday

Despite the fact that the data do not support the conclusion that a more mobilized religious base was the key to George W. Bush's win in 2004*, it still remains a commonly held assumption by the political media. So it should not come as a surprise then that both The New York Times and The Washington Post run stories today trumpeting the supposed importance of Democratic gains among religious and Evangelical voters in the party's win in Tuesday's midterm elections.

...it's overwhelmingly clear that the Democrats gained many more votes from less churchgoing voters than from more churchgoing voters.
