Calif. GOP Seeks Religious Push (churches campaigning for Arnold) [View All]

[Democat]

Republicans promoting Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's four ballot initiatives on Tuesday's special election are hoping a push by religious conservatives to promote the abortion measure could translate into support for the governor's "year of reform" agenda.

"We've had tremendous encouragement in recent weeks. Thirty churches a day are signing up to have bulletin inserts to get out the vote and remind their congregations to vote," said Gary Marx, a consultant hired by the California Republican Party to help pass Proposition 73.

"We're focusing our efforts on churches that can have the most impact, a lot of the megachurches," he said.

Arnold continues to move to the right and the GOP continues to use churches to divide Americans.
