Religion & Political Affiliation

Muslim's are traditionally Republican... I'm not sure about Anglicans...

So are Vietnamese, quite possibly the largest group of Buddhists in the US.

Anglicans are called Episcopalians in the US. And I'd guess they probably vote Dem more often than Rep.

Methodists - ?
Pentecostals - GOP unless mining
Mormons - GOP
Reformed - GOP
Lutherans - ?

Anyone know if the Muslim vote has changed since 2000 in light of the war against terror?

This does surprise me, I would've thought the muslim vote would've been 80% for Gore.

Many (but not all) observers believe it will be 80% for Kerry next time.

Asians are a Republican block, right?  If so, does this transfer to any religious blocks?

Nope, they aren't.
There are a few Asian Republican blocs - most notably Vietnamese.
There are also a few Asian Democratic blocs. (Koreans?)
And lots of swing and hardly-ever-voters.
That said, Asians swung big time between 96 and 2000 if polls are to be believed, giving both Dole and Gore 10point plus leads.
