Man killed, woman injured in Northwest Side hit-and-run, San Antonio police saySmall rain chances, then lower humidity, cooler by ThursdayFILE - Spanish language voting stickers which read"He Votado Hoy" are offered at a polling place in Philadelphia, May 21, 2019.

Overall, a majority of U.S. Catholics from multiple demographics support abortion-rights, even though the Catholic hierarchy describes opposition to abortion as its preeminent priority. Lorraine Martinez, a 68-year-old Californian, said she was raised Catholic. While she’s not a regular churchgoer now, her upbringing in the faith informs her values to “take care of your neighbor, be kind and not cruel."

She also supports legal access to abortion, viewing reproductive health issues, including IVF treatments, as something women should decide without governmental interference. Butcher attends a Protestant church and says her faith is important in her daily life as well as her decision to vote for Trump.

In the poll, about half of Hispanic Protestant and Catholic registered voters said immigration is one of the most important issues for their vote; only about 1 in 10 in each group said it’s not important.
