Economics is a generally Democratic department, but not as much so as the social sciences that you named.

The most conservative department is Business, which is about 50/50 due to the persistent Dem lean among academics.

I've read survey data in the past to back this up, but I can't seem to find it.

I remember Political Science and Philosophy being something like 95/5 liberal, English was right up there in the 90s, History was in the 80s, Economics was like 75/25 liberal, Engineering around 70/30 liberal,  and then Business was something like 53-47 liberal.

Wish I could find the survey report on this.
