It's very interesting to look closely at the numbers to see the racial divide, economic divide, and generational divide in America. Interestingly, although Romney got 82% of the conservative Christian vote, it wasn't enough to put him over the top. Evaluating these numbers is very important for us as ministry leaders to see where the country is headed and how people from different racial, ethnic and age demographics are viewing the present and the future. To me, the stats show the nation more divided than ever, if I'm reading them correctly. It certainly does reveal a lot about GenY (18-29) and how they see things.
