Neither will be particularly important.

The fastest growing and most influential, in the future, block are the 'Nones', which make up according to Pew, 36% of the 'Millennial' electorate and 1 in 4 of the general electorate. They may be a bigger voting block than the evangelicals this election cycle.

I don't think, having grown up during the 'moral panic' tinged religiously orientated campaigns of the 90's to now, younger people are going to be drawn to religious identity politics regardless of political hue.
