CWN Editor's Note: A survey of 5,772 adults conducted by the Public Religion Research Institute in November and early December found that white Catholics voted for President-elect Donald Trump by a 59%-39% margin, while Hispanic Catholics voted for Vice President Kamala Harris by a 55%-43% margin.
White Catholics who attend Mass weekly voted for Trump by a 64%-33% margin, while white Catholics who seldom or never attend Mass supported Trump by a 56%-42% margin. The survey did not offer a similar breakdown for Hispanic Catholics—though it did find that 25% of Hispanic Catholics, and 21% of white Catholics, believe that “God ordained Donald Trump to be the winner of the 2024 presidential election.”
An earlier Washington Post exit poll found that Trump won 56% of the Catholic vote.
