I’ll go one by one Utah - right wing on both probably? But economically right wing is hard to define. It’s easier to talk about gender than fiscal, monetary, industrial, labor, housing, transportation, and welfare policy. Though all in all, I’d say Utah is better educated than a lot of the US though that’s for very socioeconomic reasons. Idaho: white supremacists, it’s just the first thing I think of sorry. Wyoming: similar to West Virginia, which probably converted to Republicans for a combo of textbook banning and coal. But Wyoming does seem more chill, but I have no evidence for that. Montana: I mean Jon Tester here is the best representative besides maybe Sinema. Arizona: more like a second California than anything, which Cali has a lot of right wing or just nimby economic aspects with a veneer of environmentalism. New Mexico: the Permian basin and Roswell seems to be an extension of that part of Texas. The rest of the state, especially the dems, being anti-weed and stuff evokes socially right wing, Econ I dunno. Colorado: I mean what is economically right wing anyways? Like weed is both economic and social. Prison labor is both economic and social. Nevada: legal prostitution, gambling, strong labor movement due in part to Harry Reid
I mean there’s not really a state that I’d consider economically left wing, but I don’t really know much about the economic policies of states. It’s all mostly cars, that’s America. This plus, I don’t imagine states can run a deficit like the nation can. Florida and Alaska have you could say left wing policies with home insurance and the state universal wage. I guess my final answer though is Arizona, because it’s so hot and sprawling but voted dem.
