Some thoughts. First, this is why I think Pro-Life Christian Social Conservative Ron DeSantis should have been nominated. He signed a 6 week abortion heartbeat ban in Florida. Trump called that a "terrible thing, a terrible mistake". While God did use Trump's judges to overturn Roe v Wade, Trump either went back to his former liberal pro-choice ways or lost the plot somewhere in trying to publicly defend life. With a better candidate, this may not have happened. Second, even apart from that, this study is quite shocking: 41 MN Christians not voting is giving the game away to the Enemy. Christ is King, and Christians should do everything possible to promote His Lordship as King of kings/presidents, including by voting. Thoughts from others here?

"Millions of Christians not planning to vote this November, could shape election: Study

The Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University study found that approximately 104 million people under the "people of faith" umbrella are not expected to vote this election, including 41 million Christians and 32 million of whom regularly go to church.

The 32 million Christians who regularly attend church services but are not likely to vote represent a far larger margin than the combined number of votes that decided the 2020 election in key battleground states," the study's lead researcher Dr. George Barna said. "If church leaders, family members, and close friends will use their influence to get reticent voters from their churches to cast a ballot on November 5, the election outcome will be meaningfully affected." https://justthenews.com/nation/religion/millions-christians-may-choose-not-vote-november-study

For many Christian is a title, not a genuine belief. So the number of actual Christians on this list is likely way smaller.
And labeling oneself a Christian does not guarantee they will all vote the same way, as evidenced on this site.
So I think, in reality, this number isn't an accurate representation and is less impactful than suggested.

I remember when all the polls said that Hilary Clinton will win the 2016 presidential election in the double digits.... :rolleyes:

I agree. So this poll is a nothing burger.

If you think the elections and the politicians are fake, than why vote? Even if you vote, what holds a politician to his/her campaign promises?

"I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this—who will count the votes, and how."

If they want to bring back credibility to the political system, have each politician state what their stance is on each issue, make them swear by oath that they will keep their word. If they fail to keep their oath, they are executed by firing squad immediately, and new elections are automatically held again.

As of right now, politicians can say anything, with no accountability. When was the last time a politician was held accountable for backing away from the campaign promises?!?! Did any real punishment occur? Just checking.

Every Christian should vote. The presidential election in at the bottom of my list. I don't know about your state, but Florida has amendments to remove restrictions on abortions, and legalize marijuana. They also have some clowns running for state and local office. These are the people that will be running your governments.
