Republicans and cowboy hats

[ElectionsGuy]

It's a western thing, not a conservative thing.

This. About half the people in Wyoming wear a cowboy hat. Now Wyoming happens to be a very republican state, and the cowboy hat demographic is more conservative than the non-cowboy hat demographic (but only by a little bit), but plenty of liberals also wear cowboy hats. Its a sign of western culture. You don't see these things in the deep south very often, but you see them a lot in Texas, Montana, Dakotas, Colorado, etc.
