A lot of those areas are under 60%. If you exclude the two top categories (evangelical Protestant and Mormon), it’s much closer to 50/50.
The real problem IMO is the evangelicals Protestants. Those are much more based around influential individuals (megachurches/TV preachers) rather than community or religious tenants.
The infographic makes no claim about the size of each group, just the left/right split within each group. You cannot draw such a conclusion from that data alone. This is a common misunderstanding in statistics when dealing with conditional probability.

Thanks, that is a much better infographic.
Any idea why Jewish people are more predominantly Democrat than Republican?
I would say that’s most.
Look at all the white oeople supporting the republicans. No surprises there
Self-proclaimed religiousness is one of the main things for conservatives no?
