What does the 2020 electorate look like politically, demographically and religiously as the race enters its final days?

Like U.S. adults overall, the majority of U.S. Catholics say abortion should be legal – at least in some cases.

President Trump continues to be White Christians’ preferred candidate, but support among voters in three traditions has slipped since August.

A large majority of U.S. adults (86%) say there is some kind of lesson or set of lessons for humankind to learn from the pandemic, and about a third of Americans (35%) say the lessons were sent by God.

In most of the 18 countries analyzed, religiously unaffiliated adults were more likely to say homosexuality should be accepted by society.

U.S. Hispanic teens are more likely than U.S. teens overall to identify as Catholic and say it’s necessary to believe in God to be moral.

Around half of Catholic registered voters describe themselves as Republicans, while 47% identify with the Democratic Party.

While teens in the United States take after their parents religiously in many ways, they stand out in some others.

American adolescents often participate at parents’ behest, and tend to be less religious in more personal, private ways.

Among those who are religiously unaffiliated, meanwhile, the vast majority (84%) say casual sex is sometimes or always acceptable.
