Extremely small-l libertarian and pretty right-wing on economic matters, she often doesn't bother to vote, in part because of the lack of competitive general elections in California, and when she does she generally makes write-ins or votes for the Libertarian candidate.



Next person:
Gender - Male
Age - 22
Race - White
Religion - Catholic
Sexual orientation - Heterosexual
Relationship status - Single
Profession - Graphics intern for a politics website (works from home)
Education - Graduated from UCLA
Hometown - San Francisco, CA
Current location - Just moved to New Orleans, LA, his childhood dream
Interests - Record collecting, Cajun and soul food, learning French

Other: He is the estranged son of the previous character. Raised atheist, converted to Catholicism between 2016 and 2017; it was partly sparked by the death of his father. Extremely critical (in private) of almost all of his mother's life choices, although he has taken from her the passion for collecting old music records. His friends nickname him "Neil Young" because he often wears flannel shirts.

Paternalistic, One Nation Tory Conservative. Socially conservative (pro-life, opposed to sexual promiscuity) but believes in pursuing the "common good" on economic issues and thus very supportive of lockdowns etc. Either reluctantly voted for Biden or backed the American Solidarity Party.

Gender: Female
Age: 23
Race: East Asian (Japanese)
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Residence/Hometown: Fresno, California
Religion: Nominally Shinto/Zen Buddhist, really agnostic
Relationship Status: Single, but very close to a male High School friend
Profession: Intern at a biotech firm, worked part time at a used bookstore before Covid-19
Education: BS in Agricultural Science, currently obtaining a MS in the same field
Income: Negligible, family income is $300,000/year
Interests: Cooking and baking, gardening, traditional Japanese culture, classic Western/Japanese literature, poetry, philosophy, exercise, classical music
Other: -Comes from a wealthy Japanese-American family which has owned a large fruit and vegetable growing farm in California's Central Valley for since the 1890s. The family is rather prominent and influential in local life, often sponsors traditional Japanese ceremonies and festivals in the area.
-Is strongly conscious of her family's history and traditions, studying agricultural science in order to develop new crops in order to preserve her family's lands and prevent their farm from going out of business
-Diagnosed with a mild form of autism and has a rather naive and curious personality, frequently asking questions at inappropriate circumstances and has little sense of personal space
-Highly ignorant of much of modern pop culture, especially in areas that she lacks any interest in
Democratic given the family background and college education, probably didn't vote in the primaries. Might have split their ticket locally depending on some niche agricultural issue.

Gender: Male
Age: 80
Race: White
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Residence/Hometown: San Francisco, California
Religion: Evangelical Christian
Relationship Status: Married, Wife is 75 with 2 kids
Profession: Former small busniess owner, large retirement income from real estate holdings
Education: High-School and some community college
Income: 500k a year, with large net worth due to real estate holdings
Interests: Fishing, Hollywood, BBQ, Ham Radio:
-Worked and ran a Gay bar in the 60's and '70s that allowed him to create the savings required for his real estate holdings
- Hated Regan due to seeing the effects of the AIDS crisis first hand, set-up initiatives to help fight AIDS and inform people.
- Still thinks homosexuality is a sin but doesn't feel much personal hatred towards it.
- Campagined for Prop 8 and faced doing because of it.
- One child is a bisexual atheist, they have a strained relationship but are still in contact
- Polyglot, Fluent in Spanish, French and has intermediate Mandarin Skills
- Move to San Francisco from Massecuehts to get away from his rich WASP family. Converted early during his arrival in San Francisco to an Evangelical church.

Ultimately I think this person is a Democrat in most of his voting patterns, though in some times he might have voted for Republicans--SF will pretty firmly beat the R out of you.

FYI the one Mung Beans did is a firm Democrat, with a strong left-liberal viewpoint and a love of unions.

Gender: Male
Age: 24
Race: White, WASP ancestry
Religion: Nominally Anglican, basically agnostic
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Relationship Status: In a relationship
Profession: Entry level worker in a PR firm
Income: $35,000
Education: English degree from William and Mary
Hometown: Richmond, VA
Current Location: Raleigh, NC
Interests: Music, with a diverse and very experimental taste, Literature, Golf
Other Notes: From an affluent "Southern Gentry" family; Personally unwilling to use drugs except alcohol

Based on another person I know.

Did you mean by last posted one? I could definitely see her as a Dem though less certain about her being a union supporter given her parents are farm owners.

(Incidentally she also is an Americanized version of an anime character)

A normal liberal Democrat, Marketing and PR firms are almost universally staffed by left-wingers and liberals. Adding the location and religious affiliation make it even more tilting towards a liberal democrat, probable Warren/Biden primary voter Biden general voter.

Given most Protestants in Catholic countries tend to be left-leaning, I would guess the Democratic Party.

Technically a centre-left independent but yeah. He's former President of Friuli-Venezia Giulia Riccardo Illy, whose grandfather founded Illycaffè.

Yours is presumably the very rare Republican trans person. He likely has lots of gripes with the Religious Right but I would guess admires Trump and is alt-right-curious.

I'll let someone else create the next character.

Bruh that's lame it's just a collection of strongly-to-extremely Democratic demographic markers.
Kshama Sawant fan though.



Next hypothetical person:
Gender - Female
Age - 25
Race - White (Hispanic)
Ancestry - Mexican, Hungarian, Spanish
Relationship status - Single
Religion - Moravian
Hometown - Akron, Ohio
Current location - Columbus, Ohio
Education - Attended some college
Occupation - Apprentice locksmith
Other - She always wears long tartan skirts and carries a rough leather bag, which people around her call "a grandma look"; extremely ignorant of pop culture; doesn't believe in the concept of sexual orientation but her only serious relationship has been with another woman.

Seems like a Democratic-leaning low-propensity voter, possibly a Trump voter in 2020 (being a "white Hispanic" who is LGBT but doesn't really identify with the LGBT community implies a possible Trump swing).

Next:
Gender - Female
Age - 23
Race - White
Ancestry - Anglo-Scots (Appalachian)
Relationship status - Single
Sexual orientation - Straight-identifying (maybe a bit curious)
Religion - Unchurched, raised vaguely Pentecostal and has some concept of god and spirituality
Hometown - Mishawaka, Indiana
Current location - South Bend, Indiana
Education - High school dropout with GED
Occupation - Fast food worker
Other - She was raised in public housing and on long-term welfare, she never saw her father even once in her life but assumes he is probably smoking crack under a bridge somewhere, she is a victim of sexual abuse and her mother and brother are currently incarcerated. Many of her extended family are also on drugs, convicts or members of gangs like the Aryan Brotherhood and the Insane Gangster Disciples. She is disgusted by her family's behavior but blames it partly on their loss of rootedness and community after leaving their ancestral home in Tazewell County, Virginia on the "hillbilly highway" in the 1960s. She will still fiercely defend them against privileged outsiders who don't know the struggle. Her dream is to move to a prosperous rural farm area in Iowa or North Dakota, marry a local man and have a family farm where she can raise her children with the innocence and sense of community she never had.

I think her residing in an urban area and being heavily reliant on welfare when younger all the while being without a religious affiliation makes her a Democrat, possibly even quite left-wing, supporting Bernie in the primaries.

Reusing her:

Mung Beans's last one is quite interesting. I think she is rather conservative from a philosophical/cultural point of view, but her disconnect from pop culture also means she is not very updated on the social media culture wars and stuff. Presumably vaguely left-leaning on economics but nothing too specific. Votes consistently Democratic out of a sense that Republicans are unserious kooks.

Yeah I can't see that person as anything but a passive Democrat. Your retired ob-gyn is either a Democrat or a left-leaning independent.

I think she is rather conservative from a philosophical/cultural point of view, but her disconnect from pop culture also means she is not very updated on the social media culture wars and stuff. Presumably vaguely left-leaning on economics but nothing too specific. Votes consistently Democratic out of a sense that Republicans are unserious kooks.

Yeah I can't see that person as anything but a passive Democrat. Your retired ob-gyn is either a Democrat or a left-leaning independent.

Gender: Female
Age: Late 40s to Early 50s
Race/ancestry: Asian (Filipina)
Sexual orientation: Straight
Relationship status/family: Married, has a daughter in college
Hometown: Quezon City, Philippines
Current location: Beaverton, OR
Education: High school in PH + culinary accreditation in the US
Occupation: Chef at a nursing home + informal small business catering
Household income: 50-70k/year
Religion: Nominally Roman Catholic
Other: likes beta fish and pomeranians

As I said before, she is based off of an anime character but I was curious what an "Americanized" version of her would be like politically. Her ethnicity would definitely favour her being a Dem but then again California farm owners are a very conservative bunch.

I would guess yours is a Democrat given her ethnicity and background.

Gender: Male
Age: 65
Race: White (Russian)
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Residence: Staten Island, New York
Hometown: Novosibirsk, Russia
Religion: Nominal Eastern Orthodox
Relationship Status: Married, two adult children
Profession: Owner of an import/export company
Education: High school diploma, attended a KGB academy
Income: $140,000/year
Interests: Classical music, Russian literature, chess, golfing, boating, hiking, military/national security affairs
Other: -Born into an elite Soviet family of Communist Party officials, was active in various CPSU organizations from his youth
-Joined the KGB in his early 20s and was one of the top students at the service academies where he befriended Vladimir Putin and became a top agent, active in both foreign and domestic assignments
-Coordinated the killings of various dissident figures and spies in the 1980s
-Immigrated to the United States in 1993 under an assumed identity, despite being cynical over the USSR's collapse is still nostalgic for the days when it existed

Is this someone from Silver Spoon?

Your ex-KGB Staten Island businessman is a Trumpist, but not a particularly extreme one.

Doing another literary one.

No, it's Eru Chitanda from Hyouka (https://hyouka.fandom.com/wiki/Eru_Chitanda). I will have to check out Silver Spoon though.

Is this Sue Trinder from Fingersmith by Sarah Waters?

Of course she is a non-voter for the simple reason that she is too young, but even when she comes of age I wouldn't expect that kind of person to actually come out to vote.


Another literary character (who is actually a real person if you want):

Gender - Male
Age - 30
Ethnicity - Italian
Sexual orientation - Heterosexual
Relationship status - Apparently engaged; complicated relationship
Hometown and residence - Turin, Italy
Education - Clearly high
Occupation - Writer/intellectual
Religion - Non-religious
Other - He is a fairly active participant in democratic life, and has party membership, but doesn't identify as a political activist.

Yep, it's Sue! Here's another, very dissimilar sleazy antihero:

Gender: Male
Age: 22
Race: White
Sexual orientation: Straight
Hometown: A small town in Tennessee
Current location: A mid-sized city somewhere in the Sunbelt Stack
Education: High school
Occupation: Street preacher
Religion: Atheist
Hobbies: Driving, picking up girls, movies
Other: Army veteran, discharged quite recently.

Not sure who yours is (Turin makes me think he might be in an Eco book?) but I'm guessing he's an elitist Sad PD voter.
