Dr. Robert P. Jones will speak on a panel hosted by the Center for American Progress, titled “God and Politics: Examining Religion in the 2012 Election.” Dr. Jones will provide a polling overview on religion and the 2012 campaign. In his opening presentation, he will explore changes in the influence of some religious groups, and outline the challenges that Mitt Romney, as well as President Obama, face among voters who have reservations about their faith, or who are unfamiliar with their religious background.

The event will take place at the Center for American Progress.
