Black pastors Tell members not to vote.
Black Pastors: "We Reject Obama On Gay Marriage. We Reject Romney On Mormonism. There's No Good Choice, So Black Voters Should Stay Home On Election Day"
From the Associated Press: "Some black clergy see no good presidential choice between a Mormon candidate and one who supports gay marriage, so they are telling their flocks to stay home on Election Day. That’s a worrisome message for the nation’s first African-American president, who can’t afford to lose any voters from his base during a tight race. The pastors say their congregants are asking how a true Christian could back same-sex marriage, as President Barack Obama did in May. As for Republican Mitt Romney, the first Mormon nominee from a major party, congregants are questioning the theology of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and its former ban on men of African descent in the priesthood."
