Isn't the reason a number of Democrats wouldn't support a Mormon President the fact that the larger organization espouses socially conservative positions? I'm surprised that number is not a lot higher.
As it turns out there are of course Mormons who are NOT socially conservative. You really have to ask each individual.
If Romney only has 18% of Republicans not liking Mormons, he's in great shape.
That's not what the question asked, Grace62. The question was: "If your party nominated a generally well-qualified person for president who happened to be Mormon, would you vote for that person?" It wasn't about socially conservative positions, or liking/disliking Mormons. It was about willingness to vote for an otherwise well-qualified candidate nominated by your own party.
