STUFF WHITE PEOPLE LIKE:
Republicans Nationwide Are Similar in Composition to 2008: Remain more likely to be conservative, married, and religious (Frank Newport, Jeffrey M. Jones, and Lydia Saad, 10/28/11, Gallup)Republicans are significantly more likely than the overall population to be non-Hispanic whites -- 87% vs. 72%, respectively, in 2011 -- and this has not changed since 2008. Most of the remaining Republicans (7%) are Hispanic, while 3% are black. The 12% of Republicans who are nonwhite contrasts with the 26% of all U.S. adults in this category.
