信仰因素左右中期选举:7名穆斯林当选国会议员创纪录

华盛顿消息:2026 年中期选举中,信仰因素在多场关键选战中发挥了显著作用。据《今日美国》11 月 6 日分析,得克萨斯州联邦参议员当选人詹姆斯·塔拉里科在胜选演讲中打出「爱邻如己」的标语,并以大卫与歌利亚的圣经故事比喻自己的选战;塔拉里科是长老会神学院学生、浸信会牧师之孙,竞选期间公开援引圣经,在白人民主党候选人中颇为罕见。
堪萨斯州巨型教会牧师亚当·汉密尔顿翻转了一个联邦参议院席位;俄亥俄州的艾米·阿克顿当选该州首位犹太裔与女性州长,其犹太信仰塑造了她的进步派政纲。全国共有 7 名穆斯林当选国会议员,创下纪录,其中密歇根州医生阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德成为全美首位穆斯林联邦参议员。
全国广播公司出口民调显示,天主教徒中不到一半支持共和党候选人,而 2024 年有 59% 的天主教徒投票给特朗普;犹太选民 68% 支持民主党,低于 2024 年支持哈里斯的 78%;穆斯林选民 86% 支持民主党;无宗教归属者 20% 支持共和党,低于 2024 年的 27%。美国伊斯兰关系委员会的民调显示,伊朗战争、经济、伊斯兰恐惧症上升与以色列在加沙的战争,是穆斯林选民投票时最关切的议题。

Faith Shapes the Midterms: A Record Seven Muslims Elected to Congress
WASHINGTON — Faith played a conspicuous role in several pivotal races in the 2026 midterm elections, USA TODAY reported in a November 6 analysis. Texas Senator-elect James Talarico campaigned under the slogan "love your neighbor" and framed his race with the biblical story of David and Goliath. A Presbyterian seminary student and the grandson of a Baptist pastor, Talarico quoted Scripture openly throughout his campaign, a rarity among white Democratic candidates.
In Kansas, megachurch pastor Adam Hamilton flipped a U.S. Senate seat. In Ohio, Amy Acton became the state's first Jewish and first woman governor, her Jewish faith shaping her progressive platform. Nationwide, a record seven Muslims were elected to Congress, among them Michigan physician Abdul El-Sayed, who becomes the first Muslim U.S. senator.
NBC exit polling showed fewer than half of Catholic voters backing Republican candidates, down from the 59% of Catholics who voted for Donald Trump in 2024. Jewish voters went 68% for Democrats, down from 78% for Kamala Harris in 2024; Muslim voters backed Democrats at 86%; and voters with no religious affiliation gave Republicans 20%, down from 27% in 2024. A Council on American-Islamic Relations poll found the Iran war, the economy, rising Islamophobia and Israel's war in Gaza were Muslim voters' top concerns.
