Apparently, there are half a million black Mormons in the world and are 3% of Mormons in the US. That's not many, but waaaay more than I would have thought. I wonder how much of the McCain-voting black population they make up.

Romney nabs 60-70% of them.

Florida for some reasons knows the race of registered voters. About 10% of the blacks are registered Pubs, or where 4 years ago when I saw the stats. Yes, it surprised me a bit.

Joe has already confirmed that the black Mormon is voting for Obama, for the record.

OFFICIAL BLACK MORMON VOTEWATCH 2012

Gladys Knight: Obama
Hipster that Joe Republic Knows: Obama

So 66% Romney then? I'm assuming that since Obama is only half-white he has a half as much chance of being Jewish ancestry compared to Romney. IIRC neither Obama or Romney claim Jewish ancestry.
