Ryan Burge parses the data about the 2024 election and finds:
"The Catholic vote is clearly a Republican vote now."
But attributing the growing Catholic vote for Republicans (white Catholics have for some time voted GOP, but now non-white Catholics are moving in that direction) to the abortion issue is a red-herring, since "the share of Catholics who are truly pro-life is not that large."
