Oregon’s non-religious voters go for Obama

Way to go, Oregon pagans, freethinkers, humanists, Buddhists, Wiccans, agnostics, atheists, and sundry other spiritual iconoclasts.

You did a lot to give Obama a big win.

From CNN:

Obama also won big in another category: among those voters who say they do not have a religion, or have another religion outside of Catholicism, Protestantism, and Judaism.

Nearly 30 percent of Oregon Democrats said they were not religious and those voters went for Obama by 21 percentage points, 60 percent to 39 percent. And among those voters who listed "other" as their religion, a group that made up 10 percent of the vote, Obama won by 42 points, 70 percent to 28 percent.

Comments

Why are you proud? Because churchless people got a mention on CNN? Both Obama and Clinton are believers, faith going candidates.

Where is your victory here?
