Raphael Warnock Joins a Select Club of Pastor-Politicians

Why don t more clergy participate in electoral politics? Raphael Warnock, by winning Georgia’s Senate election against U.S. Sen. Kelly Loeffler, will join Republican Sen. James Lankford as one of two ordained ministers in the Senate chamber. Only about 2% of members of the U.S. House of Representatives are ordained ministers. Their numbers are scarce despite the fact that members of the clergy often possess speaking skills, have an impulse to serve and boast strong ties to their communities – all qualities that are useful in politics. Furthermore, Americans are among the most religious people in the Western world. So why do so few clergy serve in Congress? And what kind of effect might this have on the priorities and policies that emerge from Washington, D.C.?
