Fairly normie millennial left-winger, my guess is she voted for Sanders in the primary. That being said, if she wasn't presumably a unionized worker in the entertainment industry, I could see her being a conservative in another part of the country.

Voted for McCain but nowadays a liberal hawk, especially thanks to Trump. Moderate on economic issues but strongly critical of Trump due to his statements on the military.

SKIP, but this was actually an old coworker of mine. Guy was kind of weird politically - basically a anti-woke libertarian (not that he'd ever describe himself as that) that who thought the War on Terror was a complete waste of time and money, though I got the impression he was more hawkish on China. Despises Trump, but surprisingly not because of the military comments - more because of the general idiocy.

Woke left-winger, could see her being part of the local DSA chapter. Definitely voted for Sanders in both 2016 and 2020, reluctantly voted for Biden in the general because she's extremely anti-Trump.

Age: 28
Ethnicity: White. Mix of various European ethnicities; jokes that he's more of a fourth-generation Iowan than anything else.
Sexual orientation: Straight
Religion: Technically a Methodist, but hasn't stepped into a church for years now.
Family: Single
Hometown: Palos Ranchos Verdes, California
Current Location: Manhattan Beach, California
Education: BA in Communications from Pepperdine. Probably more fair to say that he majored in water polo though. Considering heading to graduate school for a career change.
Occupation: Commercial real estate agent, though never a particularly good one and he knows it. Lockdowns have been rough on him, and he's having a bit an existential crisis about what comes next.
Interests:
-Enjoys hanging out with his former teammates over the weekends and watching the Lakers with them, though it's been harder as more of them have started families and covid threw another wrench into it.
-Has gotten into jiujitsu since a friend told him about it a few years ago. Watches a lot of martial arts videos in his spare time and has gotten more into physical fitness since covid began.
-Big time Swiftie - knows pretty much all of Taylor Swift's songs and the release of Evermore was the highlight of his 2020. Other favorite artists include Halsey and Lorde. Also kind of into Bridgerton rn?

-Though less religious than she once was, she still takes part in some church activities. The basketball team she coaches is through the CYO.
-Favorite TV shows include The Bachelor, Top Chef, and competitive reality TV shows like The Challenge and Wipeout. Not super into scripted TV.

Probably some Rogan-y stances on a lot of things. If he made $140,000/year, I'd assume Republican for tax reasons and on account of some very bro-y views, but since he makes $140/year, and presumably has to pay child support for three kids, I have to assume Democrat for purely material reasons. At that level of income, I'm assuming my man is living on the streets and could use a basic welfare state.

Race: Asian (Chinese)
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Location: Arcadia, CA
Hometown: Shenzhen, China
Relationship Status: Dating a recently graduated Chinese international student
Income: n/a, currently lives with parents
Education: High school graduate, currently attending community college
Religion: Atheist
Interests: Anime, Chinese literature, NBA, improving English skills
Other: Was born in the US to parents who were graduate students but moved back to China six months after he born. Following recent policy changes, the family decided to send him back to the US to live with his older cousin who has a greencard.

Solidly progressive Dem

Not what I would’ve said. pikachu’s voter is internally inconsistent though, the post doesn’t confirm whether he graduated from high school in China or the US (I’m interpreting this as the former), and he can’t be living with his parents in the US unless they’re all staying with his cousin in Arcadia.

I really need to start proofing what I post here Tongue

Made some edits to make it work.

Seems like an archetypical Republican. Wouldn’t be surprised if he was ex-military considering the location. That being said, I don’t quite why he’d be in SD on that income - man’s taking a beating on COL.

Race: Indian (Maharashtrian)
Gender: Male
Age: 60
Education: MD
Occupation: Gastroenterologist
Location: Evansville, IN
Hometown: Pune, MH
Salary: $300k
Religion: Practicing Hindu
Marital status: Married, wife lives in Pune and isn’t a US citizen
Interests: cricket, football, but the guy’s mainly a workaholic
Kids: 2, one citizen and one not a citizen
Other info: Lived in various Midwestern states in his 30s for medical fellowships, but was deeply over America and left. Moved back recently to help his non-citizen kid with immigration issues and said kid wants to settle in the US. Dr. Hypothetical Voter might stay in America for the long term or he might not, who knows?
