| Summary: | For this study, 505 residents of “Middletown” (Muncie, Indiana) were randomly selected to examine what differences there might be between Catholics, conservative Protestants, and mainline Protestants in terms of factors related to how they voted in the 1992 presidential election. Social class was found to be a major factor in how Catholics voted; conservative social issues, especially traditional family values, played an important role in how conservative Protestants voted. There were no significantly distinct factors that related to how mainline Protestants voted. |
