I don't think that was overturned until the nineties.There's still a law like that on the books here in Mississippi. One cannot hold any county, municipal, or state office if he/she "denies the existence of a Supreme Being". Of course, it is unconstitutional, but it makes little difference because it will never be challenged in court. An "out" atheist would never be elected for any office in this state.
