Do you vote for candidates that espouse the same religious views as yourself?
In a way, I do. I vote for candidates who share my views on the role of religion in civic life. I definitely don't vote for candidates whose proposals contradict my view on that.
I wouldn't expect Christians to vote based on a candidate's religious beliefs, but I would expect them to reject candidates whose proposals contradict the Christian voters' beliefs, say, on the treatment of other human beings.
