An Evangelical Is Back from Exile, Lifting Romney
posted on September 24, 2012At The New York Times, Jo Becker profiles Ralph Reed. The former head of the Christian Coalition, Reed is now working to get evangelicals to vote for Mitt Romney on election day. “White evangelicals are a crucial voting constituency, 26 percent of the 2008 electorate and overwhelmingly Republican in recent presidential cycles, exit polls show,” writes Becker. “With so few truly undecided voters left, bumping up evangelical turnout in swing states like Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, North Carolina and Ohio would almost certainly help Mr. Romney.”
