A Los Angeles Times/Bloomberg poll conducted in late June 2006 about voter views on the religious affiliations of possible presidential candidates showed that 10 percent of respondents would not vote for a candidate who was Roman Catholic. Yet that figure is much lower than the 21 percent who said they would not vote for an evangelical Protestant, or the 37 percent who would not vote for a Mormon. Experts say that indicates the anti-Catholic bias that was once widespread has diminished sharply.
