Why did Donald Trump attract a record number of white evangelical voters without unified support-and despite nontrivial antipathy from evangelical leaders? The editors and leading scholars that contribute to the timely volume The Evangelical Crackup? answer this question and provide a comprehensive assessment of the status of evangelicals and the Christian Right in the Republican coalition.
The expected "crackup" with the Republican Party never happened. Each chapter in this cogent volume includes analyses of the 2016 election to explain why-and why that is critical. Chapters examine policy priorities, legal advocacy, and evangelical loyalty to the Republican Party; rhetoric, social networks, and evangelical elite influence; and the political implications of movements within evangelicalism, such as young evangelicals, Hispanics, and the Emergent Church movement.

In the series The Religious Engagement in Democratic Politics, edited by Paul A. Djupe
Introducing a new series!
The Religious Engagement in Democratic Politics series, edited by Paul A. Djupe, will collect work that explores in theoretically and empirically rigorous ways variations in and determinants of religious presence in the politics of democratic nations-from those with a long history of institutionalized democracy to those struggling to establish free, contested elections and systems of rights and liberties. Books in the series will demonstrate application of one or more of a variety of quantitative and qualitative methodologies to explore the robust and highly variable presence of religion in democracies.
Paul A. Djupe teaches political science at Denison University. He is the coauthor of God Talk: Experimenting with the Religious Causes of Public Opinion with Brian R. Calfano and the editor of Religion and Political Tolerance: Advances in the State of the Art (both Temple). He is also the editor of the Religious Engagement in Democratic Politics series with Temple.
Ryan L. Claassen is Professor of Political Science at Kent State University. He is the author of Godless Democrats and Pious Republicans? Party Activists, Party Capture, and the "God Gap."
