Country Club Republicans are the type that pretty much don't talk about social issues and just vote GOP for tax cuts. They'd win way less.

Working Class whites and Country Club Republicans don't even get along in Fresno, but both vote Republican for completely different reasons.

If the Country Club Republicans were to exile the working-class populist contingent, they'd be wildly successful among coastal wealthy "liberals."  The promise of low taxes, investor-friendly economic policy, and moderate social positions would go over extremely favorably in places like Los Angeles, Silicon Valley, Portland, OR, suburban New York (CT and NJ), New Hampshire and Maine, and South Florida.  They would love the "new Republicans," now free from all of that moralist "baggage."

Assuming this is a primary, the country clubers probably win.

I accidentally voted populist/populist, but I think it would be populist/cc. The cc'ers have more money.

...and have less people

I'd lean towards the white working-class populists, because I'm afraid the country club Republican would only want to line the pockets of the very rich.

I don't see how the country club Republicans could win in ANY state (not even Utah, Idaho, Alaska, Mississippi, Alabama, Texas, or South Carolina) since they are too outnumbered, and too many people would have the same concern I'd have.

Populists would do well in Kansas, Texas and much of the south. But would struggle on the est coast. they like there liberals.
