Would you vote for someone whose religious beliefs are different from yours?

[Xing]

And by this I mean a completely different religion from yours, not merely a different sect or a nuanced difference in very specific beliefs.

I hope I don't regret starting this thread...

[Grumpier Than Thou]

considering just about everyone's religious beliefs are different than mine, yes (sane)

[Buffalo Bill]

I voted no but also voted for Romney in 2012 so I guess that's not entirely accurate.  I vote for the person who holds morals closer to my own.

[Wells]

For anyone I support, it depends.

[Goldwater]

Considering I am, unlike most politicians, not religious, it happens all of the time.

[Stand With Israel. Crush Hamas]

I have very little choice.

[Antonio the Sixth]

I have very little choice.

Ditto. Not many agnostics out there for me to vote for.

That said, even if there were, I'm pretty sure religious beliefs per se wouldn't be a factor in my choice.

[LLR]

Yes, but I'd definitely prefer a Jew. (Not like that's gonna happen any time soon, though )

[TJ in Oregon]

There are people with religious beliefs different than mine who I would vote for. There are also people with religious beliefs different from mine who I would not vote for (ie. it is not the case that I would vote for every possible candidate with religious beliefs different from mine). Therefore I voted Depends(I/O).

Wordy but necessary for logical consistency

[SATW]

Considering Jews are only like 2.5% of the population, obviously yes (sane, not a bigot).

[DavidB.]

I think I never voted for someone with my religious beliefs...

I have very little choice.

[evergreenarbor]

Considering I am, unlike most politicians, not religious, it happens all of the time.

[Green Line]

Yes, but it depends on their religion. 

[Kingpoleon]

Yes, but not for crazy religions and and stuff like transcendentalism. Voted Depends.

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

Yes, but it depends on their religion. 

And also to the degree that their religion affects their politics. For instance, I could see voting for a Young Earth Creationist if their Biblical hyperliteralism didn't dictate their politics, but I'd be rather surprised if that were the case.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Considering I'm Muslim, yes all my votes have been for non-Muslims.  So the answer is yes.

[RFayette]

Absolutely in a general election, though in a primary election religion would definitely be a prime consideration.

[FEMA Camp Administrator]

Voting for a Jew or Muslim would be fantastic. Not sure about a dialectic materialist, though.

[White Trash]

Voting for a Jew or Muslim would be fantastic. Not sure about a dialectic materialist, though.

My feelings exactly.

[Monolith]

I vote for the person who holds morals closer to my own.

Exactly. Religion has nothing to do with it for me, it's all about morals and I think that's why a lot of people vote for someone on a religious basis. You get similar moral outcomes from similar religions.

[Person Man]

I would vote for anyone who I agree with on the issues who doesn't believe in anything objectively malevolent (some sort of demon worshipper/actual satanist).
I have a friend who is a state legislator and atheist from school.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

I have a Jew as one of my Senators I voted for twice and a Muslim Representative I've voted for every election I've lived here. Yes.

[RINO Tom]

Yeah.

[Santander]

It would be a factor in my decision, but I wouldn't rule it out completely.

[Antonio the Sixth]

Voting for a Jew or Muslim would be fantastic. Not sure about a dialectic materialist, though.

Frankly, I've come to the conclusion that calling dialectical materialism a religion is being too kind on dialectical materialism.
