Original: US Catholic bishops urge the faithful to vote, but put 'faith over politics' Ahead of the Nov. 3 midterm elections, Arch

Ahead of the November 3 midterm elections, Archbishop Paul S. Coakley, president of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, issued a statement urging American Catholics to vote, calling it a civic duty, while stressing that faith should take priority over partisan politics. The bishops' message encourages participation without endorsing candidates or parties.

Why now: The statement lands weeks before the November 3 midterm elections, when religious groups' voting guidance draws wide attention.
