Catholics for Obama describes Christian religious people that cast a ballot for reasons other than what the Church preaches. The Catholic Church opposes abortion candidates. For example, somebody that is a Catholic for Obama might have been swayed by Barack Obama's endorsement from Colin Powell.

Unknowlingly

If a Catholic for Obama supporter unknowlingly voted Obama, was naive to the candidates position, it is then a non-conscience selection cleared of fault.

If you are a Catholic for Obama supporter that knew the candidates abortion position and still voted Obama, you are required to seek confession and abstain from the Eucharist. [1]

The Rev. Jay Scott Newman said in a letter distributed Sunday to parishioners at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Greenville, South Carolina said supporting him [Obama] "Voting for a pro-abortion politician when a plausible pro-life alternative constitutes material cooperation with intrinsic evil." In Addition, "Persons in this condition should not receive Holy Communion until and unless they are reconciled to God in the Sacrament of Penance, lest they eat and drink their own condemnation."
