As a side note, of "religious" people who voted overall, 57% considered themselves liberal. Of "non-religious" people who voted overall, 58% considered themselves liberal.

Taking out the votes of those who said they pay no attention to politics, 65% of "religious" voters said they are liberal and 78% of "non-religious" voters said they are liberal. Keeping in mind the issues regarding the definition of "religious" that UsTwo pointed out, among the other obvious issues with a poll such as this, I stand by the belief that this does not show any significant correlation between political stance and religiousness.
