INTERACTIVE- Compare religious makeup of counties with Missouri senators by district and county

by Matthew Patane and Melissa Roadman

Explore the religions of Missouri's state senators by their district with the most prominent religion in each county by using the map below. The map contains two layers, one with the senators' religions and one with the religions by county. To view only the county map, uncheck the box above labeled "Religions of state senators". 



The county's religions are based on the Association of Statisticians of American Religious Bodies 2010 national survey of congregational attendance by county. The senator's religions were self-reported on their online biographies, by their legislative staff or through in-person interviews.
