In most cases, registered U.S. voters who regularly attend religious services said they are more likely to support former President Donald Trump in the upcoming election, a survey found.

But for Black voters, consistent attendance at religious services has the opposite result, according to an Oct. 11 Public Religion Research Institute survey.

The survey of 5,352 adults, conducted between Aug. 16 and Sept. 4, found that 85% of Black voters who attend religious services weekly or more said they’re likely to support Vice President Kamala Harris, compared with 76% who seldom or never attend.

Despite Trump’s efforts to win over Black voters, a majority of the group — regardless of religious preferences — still said they’d support Harris, researchers said.

According to the survey, over half of registered Hispanic voters said they’d vote for Harris, but the likelihood that they will support Trump increases with more frequent religious service attendance.

Sixty-five percent of Hispanic voters who seldom or never attend religious services said they’d vote for Harris, while 55% who attend weekly or more said they’d vote for Trump.

The survey also found 56% of white voters said they’d vote for Trump over Harris, with the likelihood significantly increasing for those who attend religious services more often. According to the survey, 76% of white voters who attend weekly or more said they’d vote for Trump — 33 percentage points more than those who seldom or never attend.

The survey has a margin of error of 1.82 percentage points.
