I've pinged them asking for crosstabs -

I want to know who these antebellum throwback #*****s support.

First, apologies to AL where actually only 21% want it to be illegal. It's MS where it's 29%.

And good news: Newt is the clear winner among people who want interracial marriage to be illegal!

Wow, about half of MS and AL Repubs think Obama is a Muslim. I'm starting to think the Republican party deserves Santorum.

100% of them wanted to elect Boyd K. Packer president.

I wonder what some of these results would be if this survey was given to Utah Republicans?

Check out Question 19 in the Alabama survey form.

This was not my experience when I lived in Alabama. Although I did hear such things from time to time.

My guess is that most people who vote this way aren't from Tuscaloosa or Birmingham.

While not the same thing, I know my brother was quite upset that one of the aaronic priesthood lessons, from the manual, advised against mixed race marriages. His son and daughter are products of such a marriage.

While this certainly would not rise to the level of supporting a law forbidding such marriages, it would give cover for someone who would support such a thing. I hope it has been taken out of the manual.
