The ratings were based on the candidates’ response to a 5 page, 47 question survey they returned and which is now posted for voters to see in its entirety at their website, ConservativeChristianCenter.org (blog of 5/14).
The group distributed a brochure with the answers to the top 10 questions asked of the candidates along with the ratings and the “faith statement” of the candidates who earned an “A” rating at Church services on Sunday and will continue to distribute the brochures on Monday and at the polling places. The brochure is also available at their website.
