RACooper, the 3/10 figure is probably accurate. I'm a Republican in the middle of the Bible Belt and I generally think of the creation story as being allegorical.

That said, down in these parts, ignorance is thought of by many as being a virtue.

Even though the 3/10 figure may be correct, I think there are far better litmus tests for candidates than their adherence to religious doctrine, so to me, it's just their belief. Whether they believe God created the world in 7 days or that Joseph decoded some magical plates with some seer stones in order to bring us the Book of Mormon, there are more important ways to decide whether or not someone will make a good leader.
