Americans to religious organizations: Stay out of politics
From the article:
As Americans gear up for a long and bitterly contentious presidential election year, their message to religious leaders and institutions couldn’t be clearer: Keep out.
That’s the finding in the latest Pew Research poll, which found that 63% of Americans say churches and other houses of worship should stay out of politics, and 76% said religious congregations should not make political endorsements.

There is a legal line between any person voting their beliefs and a 501(c)3 organization publicly endorsing political candidates, and in my view, any churches or other 501(c)3 organizations that violate the law should be prosecuted.
