Mormons For Kamala Harris Call On Fellow Believers To Put Principles Aside

Mesa Mayor John Giles

A group of Mormon leaders are calling on their fellow believers to put principles aside and vote for Kamala Harris.

The group, led by out-going Mesa Mayor John Giles, is making it “clear that members of the church who might be opposed to liberal views of gender, same-sex marriage and abortion should put their views aside and vote for Harris,” according to Cronkite News.
Despite the fact that the Mormon population is sizeable in the swing state of Arizona, Paul Lewis, an associate professor of political science at Arizona State University’s School of Politics and Global Studies, told Cronkite that he did not believe the small group would move the needle much for the current vice president.

“I think it is more something the Harris campaign can trot out there and say, ‘Hey, look, we’re not just a traditional base of Democrats here, but we appeal to a broad swath of people.’ It’s also a way to increase their messaging about Trump being dangerous or objectionable,” Lewis told Cronkite News.

Current polls show Trump with a narrow lead over Harris Arizona.

Giles, who is a registered Republican, has endorsed mostly Democrat candidates over the past few years, including Congressman Ruben Gallego.

“What a very John Giles thing to do,” remarked Constantin Querard, a GOP consultant in the valley. “But it is an absurd message to go to voters on the basis of their religious affiliation, then ask them to cast aside the core values of their faith to support a candidate who will advance a world-view that is hostile not just to their church’s views, but to churches and organized religion themselves.”

Giles is term-limited so he will not be seeking re-election in the largely Republican east valley city. Politicos say that having led the adoption of a city-wide non-discrimination ordinance and liberal climate action plan, a Giles’ run would have been unsuccessful if he had been allowed to run again.

According to various sources, Giles is rumored to be looking at a run for Governor in 2026, and his more recent publicity stunts are him running to the left to try to find support in a match-up against the GOP’s presumptive nominee, Karrin Taylor Robson.

  1. Yea, lets put principles aside and vote for who the church tells you to vote for. This is a very dangerous approach from the church and when this happens and the country goes over the edge into communism from the current leadership (Obama) you can thank your church who told you to don’t worry about principles and vote to destroy the country because of the church’s “principles.”

  2. Any “leader” that asks you to put aside your principles should be mocked and shamed into silence. Didn’t the devil whisper nearly the same thing in Jesus’s ear? A “Christian” that would vote for a person who supports killing the unborn up to birth, castrating children and who wants to put price controls on food, needs to rethink whether or not they ever knew Jesus at all.

    • Morman’s are not Christians. They believe God is not the Supreme Being; that Adam was actually God and the Father of Jesus Christ. There is a lot more information but you need to seek it so you personally know.

      • The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints does not believe Adam is God. Nor do we believe that Adam was the father of Jesus Christ. I don’t know where you get your information but you’re delusional

  3. If they vote for Harris it will confirm they are two-faced hypocrites. As we all know, there are many moral reasons why not to vote for her. But consider this, the IRS endorsed her. That should tell us all we need to hear to not vote for her. That is, unless you’re on the public dole.

    • He’s been censured that’s about aller can do. I believe he’s a democrat plant or or bought off by someone.

  4. To that group of Mormons I say The hell with supporting Harris. I want our country in the hands of Americans that love and support this country not try to tear it down as the liberals do

  5. Just another example here of the Elites (Mormon leadership) being out of touch with their people. Don’t blame the Mormons alone, same with Catholics and Evangelicals.

    The leaders got theirs, shameful

  6. The Mormons by and large loath leftists, but there is a core of power hungry Trump haters who are mad he upset their apple cart with Romney and Flake. Also their plans for the big market for souls in China.

  7. the loss of faith , principles, morals, justice, life, common sense, reality.. yup just our kind of representative? Haaa ‘ the loss of these are not just a Mormon quality, but one that has stricken all ‘religion’, much of religion – just as it is said to be in the end times. Drugs – Sex – prostitution, pornography, evil rules the ‘world’ and is growing in strength as time comes to an end – Satan’s time on earth is coming to an end as the return of Christ nears. It is exactly as it is promised in prophecy to be in these times – The world on the brink of Nuclear war – this nation on the edge of destruction. Keep the Faith – all will be overcome. Amen!

    • Now is the time to put on the whole armor of God.
      Ephesians 6:10-18 as followa, Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Now is the time good people.

  8. I thought it read, “A group of morons”. No matter how it reads, people should never give up their beliefs when voting. If they do then they are a moron.

  9. It would be interesting to know if the LDS is one of the NGOs that are currently working with Biden/Harris to distribute the illegals around the country. How about a story on that ADI?

  10. Many Mormons are open borders globalists yet they pretend to be conservatives. Little more than a cult masquerading as a religion.

  11. “A group of Mormon leaders are calling on their fellow believers to put principles aside and vote for Kamala Harris.”

    Why have morals and principles? Put them aside and vote for importation of criminals, illegals and drug pushers!
