For decades, the PCC has upheld its long-standing tradition of surveying candidates for political office at both the federal and state levels, and educating voters about key Catholic issues. The questionnaires and the candidate research encompass a wide range of topics about the right to life and the dignity of the human person, but also marriage and family, justice and peace, religious liberty, and others. This General Election 2008 special issue of the Viewpoint contains information about the presidential and statewide candidates.
