Describe the likely political views of the previous hypothetical person

Well, I would say strong progressive despite the white male factor because they seem like the archetypal "young LGBT urban progressive", but given the similarities to a certain prominent Oregonian, I'm going to say left-libertarian. Supported Johnson and switched allegiance to the Dems after the election.

Adherence to reform judaism and working in academia are two very strong signs of a Democrat. I'm going to say moderate Democrat, definitely voted for Clinton and Obama (at the very least, the first time around). The rare white Alabama Democrat strikes again.
