The Catholic vote is indistinguishable from the American electorate as a whole.

Oh, and Mormons are Protestant Christians, just to let you know. Odd ones yes, but still Protestants.

I don't have a dog in the hunt, but that is a very contentious point of view. Mormons may believe they are in the Protestant tradition, but lots of Protestant sects don't even accept they are Christian.

Some Protestant sects don't consider Catholics Christian.

Very true. It would be easier not to play the game at all... but if I can't resist being baited by NY Jew on a similar topic...

Can't we agree that the Mormons are non-Protestant Christians? Of course I don't really care which branch of the Abrahamic religion people think they are.

I'm not Christian, so I don't have an opinion other than to defer to how they identify themselves, but there are lots of people out there who have an issue with it.
