The Knoxville News Sentinel interviewed Mark Hulsether, professor of religious studies, for a story examining the intersection of religion and politics and how people of faith draw disparate conclusions at the ballot box.
Hulsether noted that a voter’s faith can be an important factor in picking a candidate.
