Most of the appalchians who vote for the Republican Party (For the most part) aren't on disability or welfare checks. Turnout in Appalachia is notoriously low and the stereotypical "redneck on food stamps" are generally unreliable voters.

The average republican voter in these poor appalachian counties; is the lower middle class guy who isn't on welfare himself but probably knows someone who is on welfare, and is resentful of the "free ride" that person seems to be getting.
