3. New data suggest Clinton, not Trump, won Catholic vote (April 06, 2017)

"Political junkies sifting through exit polls in the hours and days after November’s election concluded that a narrow majority of Catholics backed Republican Donald J. Trump for president, despite concern from some Catholic leaders, including Pope Francis, over some of the political neophyte’s proposals.

But new data from a nonpartisan political science organization say, “not so fast.”

According to an analysis of American National Election Studies data by a political scientist at Georgetown University’s Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate, Catholic voters narrowly went for Democrat Hillary Clinton, 48 percent to 45 percent. Among Hispanic Catholics, Mrs. Clinton cleaned up handily, winning by more than 50 points."

Something doesn't smell right.
