This book examines both the evolution of the Catholic vote in the
US and the role of Catholic voters in the historic 2016 elections.
There is a paucity of academic works on Catholics and US
politics-scholars of religion and US politics tend to focus on
evangelical Protestant voters-even though Catholics are widely
considered the swing vote in national elections. The 2016
presidential election proves that the swing vote component of that
group matters in close elections. What Trump gained from his
impressive showing among Catholics, he could certainly lose in 2020
(should he seek re-election), just as Hillary Clinton lost the
clear advantage among Catholics achieved by Barack Obama in 2008
and 2012. The book begins by analyzing the ideological patterns in
the politics of U.S. Catholics as well as key alliances, and
concludes by studying the political influences of the U.S. Catholic
Bishops and the Holy See.
