Vote for which party?8    Since the main objective was to test the political affiliation of the non-formal churches (Apostolic and Evangelical), for the purposes of the analysis we combined all religions other than Evangelical or Apostolic together. This gave the following initial breakdown: Evangelical/Pentecostal (20%), Apostolic (12.2%), Other Churches (56.3%) and None (11.4%). We then combined all the other groups together, and when the data was cleaned gave a split of Apostolics (18%) and the remainder, Other Churches (82%). There were a number of working hypotheses that we wished to test, some deriving from previous research on active citizenship and social capital.   8 Members of Apostolic churches will express stronger support for ZANUPF than other political parties; Members of Apostolic churches will be predominantly rural, and hence show higher frequencies of social capital and political trust, and less political fear (RAU. 2018.(a); RAU. 2018 (b)). Close to a political party: Scored as ZANU-PF, MDC-T, Other party, Reticent (Don’t know, Inapplicable & Refused to answer); Vote for which party: Scores as ZANU-PF, MDC-T, Other party, Reticent (Don’t know, wouldn’t vote, refused to answer). 4
