Ah, year ago, Democratic presidential candidates Joe Biden made a number of visits to restaurants in Los Angeles trying to court voters.

Minerva Munguia Sanchez, a Catholic school principal, happened to be at one of them.

She recalls feeling moved to present the candidate with a gift, her rosary.

He tells me that the gift that I gave him, he didn't take lightly, and he proceeded to show me the risk, his wrist, his left wrist and he has a a rosary that he carries all the time.

The Biden campaign shared an image of the interaction on social media.

Munguia Sanchez said the encounter moved her as a Catholic that day.

I got to observed how he treated others, and it was different, and it impressed to be.

A survey by the Pew Research Center earlier this month found that American Catholics are divided over whom to support for the White House.

Overall, 51% of Catholics said they were supporting Biden.

44% are backing Republican President Donald Trump.

Biden is a Catholic and often references his faith as vice president.

He spoke about his experience meeting Pope Francis following the death of his son.

Then even he, I think, will ever understand.

Donald Trump retains the start support of white evangelical Protestants.

The Pew survey shows 78% of the back the president.

In August, Trump claimed Biden was quote against God because he's following the radical left agenda.

Biden called Trump's attacks shameful and said his faith has always been quote the bedrock foundation of his life.

And unlike Trump, who rarely appears in a church outside of campaign events, Biden has made repeated visits to church in Delaware.

 The Democrat has been criticized for his stance on abortion, but Mongia Sanchez believes Biden's Catholicism's will help him lead Politics is the service for people and that I believe that and no politician is perfect.
