PARTY-BACKED REPUBLICANS DEFEAT TEA PARTY….

Romney Secures GOP Nod in Primary

Party-backed Republicans easily defeat Tea Party candidates to be delegates to their national convention.
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney took a big step in his quest to secure the GOP nomination with a five-state sweep on Tuesday, including a landslide victory in the Pennsylvania primary.
Romney easily outdistanced his opponents among Pennsylvania Republicans with 58 percent of the vote. Among Bucks County voters, the former Massachusetts governor also won big, securing 27,532 votes for 66.6 percent.
As of midnight, 9,165 out of 9,260 districts (98.97%) were reporting statewide while in Bucks County, 302 of the 304 districts have been counted.
Former Sen. Rick Santorum‘s (R-Pa.) decision to drop out of the race a few weeks ago handed Romney an expected victory in the primary. Despite dropping out of the race on April 10, Santorum was running second statewide with 18.4 percent of the vote. In Bucks County, Ron Paul finished second with 13.4 percent of the vote and Santorum was third at 11.6 percent.

5 QUESTIONS TO ASK ALL POLITICIANS……

Dear MK,

Yesterday I challenged you to help me monitor faith’s role at this week’s Democratic National Convention – we will have another challenge for the Republicans next week. But, we need to be ready to ask candidates at all levels important questions about their views on the intersection of religion and government.

Today, Interfaith Alliance introduces new online resources with 5 questions to ask every political candidate.

As religion plays an increasingly prominent role in American politics, preserving the boundaries between religion and politics is more important than ever.

We want you to ask the candidates for every level of political office:

Visit www.interfaithalliance.org/5questions to watch videos from me about why we need the answers to all of our 5 questions, and read more about each one. I hope you will post your perspective – and stories about asking one of the 5 questions to our candidates – in the comments section for each of the 5 Questions.
