Atlas: ~"Hispanics and Muslims are socially conservative and pro-life, it's only natural that they should vote Republican"

Meanwhile, Muslims are 60% pro-choice and Hispanic Catholics are 57% pro-choice.

Although it is true that "Hispanic Protestant" is only 40% pro-choice, I wonder what Hispanic other/unaffiliated are? Probably strongly pro-choice enough for the average for Hispanics overall to end up at close to the Hispanic Catholic 57%.
I very much doubt this survey's response rate from Muslims is an accurate representation of American Muslims

There are anyway from 2-6 million Muslims in the US. Roughly 35-42% were born in the US (like me)

Roughly 20% of US born Muslims are African American converts

I think pro life position for Muslim immigrants would be close to (100%) unless they came as a child

To be blunt, most Muslim immigrants aren't going to do a survey. I would bet money that the "Muslims" that completed this survey were mostly college aged US born Muslims or converts



100% for immigrants? Isn't abortion legal in a lot of muslim countries? I'm not sure I buy that the number is so high.

But I agree that this seems to be a way too pro-choice muslim sample. Whitmer heavily underformed in muslim areas in her 2022 gubernatorial run and the only possible reasons are either abortion or LGBT issues (since Gaza wasn't a salient issue then).

I wonder why white Protestants are more likely to be pro-choice than white Catholics, but the opposite is true for Hispanics.

Does protestant include evangelical? If so then I bet most protestant hispanics are evangelical while many protestant whites are mainline protestant.

This is absolutely the reason. If you look at that chart, white mainline and white evangelical protestants are presented as two seperate groups but are lumped for the hispanics (probably due to lower sample size).

Also I believe that just like with muslims, their black sample is probably way too pro-choice which is why the Southern states are so far away from conventional wisdom on that map. This study seems to have a black sample that is less than 20% pro-life whereas polls from Gallup and Pew as late as 2020 have that number closer to ~35%. This is why states like Georgia, North Carolina and Virginia in particular seem way too pro-life on this map.
