New research by George Barna, America's leading Christian pollster, is challenging assumptions about the political loyalties of born-again Christians. The findings are not likely to be pleasant news for the Republican Party.

Since the 1992 contest between George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton, born-again Christians have increasingly supported the Republican nominee for president. The highest split came in 2004, when born-again Christians supported George W. Bush by a 64-to-38 margin over Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.). Over the same time period, which covered four national elections, the tendency of the born-again vote to lean toward the GOP grew from 39 percent to 62 percent.
