Jackson County, TN

Democrat: About 80 years old. Lives in an old country house and is a retired farmer, probably hasn't voted for a Republican in their life, and were big fans of Jimmy Carter and John Edwards.

Republican: 50 year old white dude, lives in a trailer with a Confederate flag in the window. On disability benefits for (insert minor injury from decades ago here) and probably a meth addict or alcoholic who occasionally works as a mechanic. Probably was a Democrat until 2008 as well, but think Trump is the best thing ever.

Wait you're from Jackson County, TN. I would've sworn from your politics you'd be from Republican east TN not from such a democratic holdout in dixie land (so much so that Obama won in 08' and McGovern won in 72'.)

NE Alabama

Democrat: Black people, old people in their 70's or 80's who have never in their life voted for a Republican, or the weirdos at school who watch anime and have weird colored hair.

Republicans: Pretty much everyone else.


Pretty simple.

Not even for Nixon?

Many of them not even for Nixon or Reagan. They have literally NEVER voted for a Republican.

Reagan makes sense as Mondale won Jackson County, AL, but Nixon was right after the height of the civil rights controversy in the south..

Cook County IL

Republican:

Rich white guy from Barrington. Family has lived there for generations and money has been passed down. Summers are spent at the country club or in the Door. Voted for Kasich in the primary and was Never Trump until November, when he voted for Trump. He told his wife he voted for Clinton, though, because she did. First Democrat she ever voted for.

OR

Blue collar, white male worker from Oak Lawn. Was straight Democrat until somewhere between 2008 and 2016, when he started voting primarily Republican. Mom and Dad are turning in their graves. Loves Trump, but still votes for some local Dems like Pat Quinn. Loves Garry McCarthy. "He's what this city needs" (even though Oak Lawn is not the city).

Democrat

Impossible. Too many of us, all in different shades, religions, ages, socioeconomic backgrounds, and professions.

2010? I can't imagine WWC backlash in chicagoland in 2008.

Depends where I am

County 1

GOP: Some hyper rich executive or some kind, probably Indian or Asian, lives in the suburbs, mostly moderate in nature.

-or-

Bitter old white person who remembers the good old days before "The Revolution" that hit the whole area in the 60's and still whines about radicals, moved as far away from the water into a suburb as possible.

Dem:  Literally every SJW-Millennial stereotype in the book, also every liberal sellout yuppie stereotype too.



County 2

GOP: Either a farmer, an evangelical, or an educated, white civil engineer...or all of the above.

Dem: Transplant from Houston, Austin, or Dallas.


County 1 SF? County 2?
