Results are pretty encouraging if you broaden the question slightly to include people who aren't religious. There are probably people out there who might draw an incorrect conclusion from the map posted here and think that these colors represent the views of the second largest group of people (some of whom may vote) in those states.

They're conveniently skipping past 20 to 30 percent of the population to show the ~1-2% and smaller fractions.

Yeah this is an almost completely bogus map. Pew research has tracked ‘Nones’ for years and it is the fastest growing ‘religion’ by far nationwide.

Obligatory "absence of religion is not a religion" in case passersby miss the meaning of your second set of "'" but yep.

All good. It is important to clarify stuff like that for a general readership
