The evangelical voters in the 2016 U.S. presidential election

03/11/2016

Reed points out that Trump has the support of only one third of evangelical voters- mostly because of strong positions on immigration and terrorism not for positions on religious issues such as abortion that are not as important as these 2 issues for these voters. It is also apparent says Reed that these voters are blue collar and without a college education, and respond to the tone of the message rather than the substance.

U.S. presidential candidate Ted Cruz and the Republican party establishment- support for Cruz from those who believe it is critical to rally the Republican base to win in 2016

01/13/2016

U.S. presidential candidate Ted Cruz is gaining support from establishment donors and supporters. Some donors and Republican party experts agree with Cruz's assessment of previous elections lost by the Republican party- a critical element in the loss was the failure to rally the party faithful, including its evangelical base of support. By turning out in higher numbers, and by gaining the support of independents, and the white working class which today supports Donald Trump, this view holds that the Republican party could overcome other obstacles to win in the 2016 presidential election. Cruz held his own state of Texas winning by 17 percentage points, and won in Oklahoma, Alaska, Idaho, Wyoming, after winning the Iowa caucuses. By March 2016 violence prone minority hate rhetoric against minorities at Trump rallies had separated responsible voices in the Republican party from the Trump efforts to divide the party.
