Political independent who is left on issues like environment/free college/worker's protections and favors a more hands-off approach on civil liberties. She supported Sanders in the Democratic Primary in 2016 and 2020, voted for Stein in the 2016 general, but is voting for Biden this time because the Trump presidency has been a disaster for people like her.

A Democrat, obviously* (no offense everyone, but some of these "Other" categories are way too explicitly political/give the person's views all away which kind of defeats the purpose of this whole game).

Current City: Lansing, MI
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Relationship Status: Boyfriend

*I know what historical figure you're referring to btw, but we must play this game as if this person is purely hypothetical.

Edit: Missed Battista - vaguely left-wing, though not incredibly political given her educational status/lack of knowledge.

(The partisanship should be pretty obvious, but I'm mostly just wondering how this person voted in the 2016 and 2020 primaries/general political views)

Probably has some conservative-leaning values (and may have even voted Republican in 2008 and 2012), but his education and military background make him seem like the kind of Republican voter that would become disillusioned with Trump and voted third party in 2016, then for Biden in 2020.
