Kerry's gains among Protestants marked but Catholics elude vote
An Akron University survey shows John Kerry had a strong showing among mainline Protestants, while his failure to win a Catholic majority helped President Bush. Bush also gained with Hispanic Protestants, 63 percent in 2004, a 31 point rise from 2000. In Royal Oak, Michigan, Detroit Archdiocese canceled a parish honoring Sister Jeannine Gramick for gay outreach, citing incompatibility with Catholic teaching. Gramick, barred by Rome from pastoral work in 1999, said the action marked a rare diocese ban from a parish.
