"I have personally spoken with two declared Christians who have stated that they will stay at home and not vote if
Romney is the Republican candidate because he is a Morman. Politically speaking, a "stay-at-home-vote," is figurally a vote for the opposition. To me that is a stupid stated position! But, each person has their own reasons for voting or not voting."

That should be offset by Catholics who can't vote for Obama because it would be a mortal sin.

Archbishop Raymond Burke of St. Louis had informed his archdiocese that

Catholics in St. Louis who vote for political candidates supportive of abortion rights have committed a grave sin in the eyes of the Church, and should confess and do penance before receiving Communion. ("Voting for abortion rights candidate is a sin," SLToday.com, June 25, 2004)

Burke is now a cardinal at the Vatican. He is the equivalent of the Chief justice of the Supreme court for the Catholic Church.
