Republicans are more charitable than Dems

Residents in Republican-leaning states give more of their money to charity than those in Democrat-leaning states, according to a new study.


The Chronicle of Philanthropy's study released this week found the eight states with residents who gave the highest percentage of their income to charity in 2008 also voted that year for Republican presidential nominee John McCain. And the seven states in which residents donated the lowest percentage of their income that year voted for President Obama, based on 2008 IRS information.
