Obligatory “this is just who I think most people in these fields will likely vote for, obviously there will be exceptions all around.” Also I think in some cases it varies greatly depending on which part of the industry people are in. Like retail for instance, I imagine a lot of the low-level employees are more Dem-leaning, a lot of middle management types are more Republican-leaning, and the CEO/corporate types may be split depending on if they’re voting more based on their wallets or their education.

Really the whole thing is mostly just a proxy for education and class/income, and how we know those variables affect people’s vote.
