Race: White
Gender: Female
Age: 36
Occupation: Correctional officer
Income: $62k
Education: High school diploma
Location: Hartwell, GA
Sexuality: Lesbian

Probably a moderate Republican.

Born: Caribou, Maine

Education: High school degree
Job: Carpenter/general contractor
Relationship: Divorced with three kids, still in contact and on good terms
Religion: Atheist from a Catholic family, refused to be confirmed
Interests: Music, fishing, hunting, camping, baseball, local history

Was a moderate, usually apolitical Democrat for most of his life, but has become increasingly right wing ever since the rise of the Tea Party in 2010, only voting for Obama the second time due to disliking how elitist and out-of-touch Romney was. Was vocally a Trump supporter in 2016, and more cautiously so in 2020, viewing his personal conduct as... questionable, but ultimately voting for him again due to opposition to shutdowns and buying into the GOP messaging that Biden wanted to 'defund the police' and generally implement a 'radical' agenda. (So in other words — he's an Obama/Trump voter)

Gender: Male
Age: 32

Family: Born to an upper middle class family, with his dad working as a security guard and his mum working as a pharmacist; has one older brother, who happens to be a moderately successful musician with a yearly income in the six digits, and he is known to mention who his brother is in job interviews
Interests: Running, singing, costume making (he sells replicas of pop culture characters' clothes and accessories on Etsy), going to nightclubs, volunteer work
Other: Lives with a roommate, a woman in her 20s, and many of their acquaintances speculate that they are a couple and just haven't made it publicly known yet; has an unusual fashion sense, including liking to wear bright, tacky clothing and still wearing a face mask whenever he's in public (even outdoors) due to it making him feel more 'secure'; used to share conspiracy theories on social media when he was in his mid-20s, most notably that the CIA, KGB, and the Chinese MSS were working together as a 'global security agency' to stomp out citizen dissent across the world, but has since denounced those theories as 'irrational'
Solidly progressive Dem

Probably has some conservative-leaning values (and may have even voted Republican in 2008 and 2012), but his education and military background make him seem like the kind of Republican voter that would become disillusioned with Trump and voted third party in 2016, then for Biden in 2020.

Probably some Rogan-y stances on a lot of things. If he made $140,000/year, I'd assume Republican for tax reasons and on account of some very bro-y views, but since he makes $140/year, and presumably has to pay child support for three kids, I have to assume Democrat for purely material reasons. At that level of income, I'm assuming my man is living on the streets and could use a basic welfare state.

Age: 23

Hometown: Shenzhen, China
Relationship Status: Dating a recently graduated Chinese international student
Income: n/a, currently lives with parents
Education: High school graduate, currently attending community college
Religion: Atheist
Interests: Anime, Chinese literature, NBA, improving English skills
Other: Was born in the US to parents who were graduate students but moved back to China six months after he born. Following recent policy changes, the family decided to send him back to the US to live with his older cousin who has a greencard.

Right-populist who voted for Obama twice, in 2008 because of the economy and in 2012 because he found Romney to be out-of-touch and elitist, but otherwise votes Republican. Supported Trump from 2015 to 2021; now supports RDS, but feels Trump is being 'targetted' by deepstaters with an axe to grind and that January 6 and the documents at Mar-a-Lago were both overblown.

Gender: Male
Age: 55
Race/Ethnicity: White (¾ 'American'/Scotch-Irish, ¼ Czech)

Occupation: Project coordinator at a solar park

Family: Born out of wedlock, to a professor in his 40s and a graduate student in her late 20s, who were briefly dating but broke up before he was born; was raised by his mum, who ended up working as an electrical engineer, and stepdad, a local journalist, alongside his two half-siblings; has two kids from his past marriage, a 23-year-old son who is currently in his senior year of university studying English and aspires to be a famous author, and a 22-year-old daughter who works as a caregiver at a nursing home; his son lives with his ex-wife and his daughter lives with him
Interests: Dirt biking, hiking, swimming at public pools, interior design, refurbishing old electronics (especially game consoles)
Other: Suffers from hearing loss, not enough that he is completely deaf, but severe enough that he has started to use a notepad and pen to communicate at work; his closest friend is a former member of the Glendale City Council, and he has been urging him to run again, but the friend does not want to; considered enlisting in the Gulf War, but was talked out of it by his half-sister, who was an outspoken pacifist and non-interventionist
Trumpist who is more pro green-energy than most as a result of his occupation

The profile fits a traditional Republican. One thing for sure is while he agrees with the party on many key issues the man is against the xenophobic tendencies, which is why he voted for Clinton/Biden.

Not what I would’ve said. pikachu’s voter is internally inconsistent though, the post doesn’t confirm whether he graduated from high school in China or the US (I’m interpreting this as the former), and he can’t be living with his parents in the US unless they’re all staying with his cousin in Arcadia.

Gender: Male
Age: 47
Race/Ethnicity: White (Scottish, Irish)
Sexuality: Straight
Religion: Catholic, more of a Easter-Christmas type.
Hometown: Eugene, Oregon
Current residence: Chevy Chase, Maryland
Education: Masters in mathematics
Occupation: High School math teacher/ice cream trunk owner in the Summer
Salary: $35k a year for teaching
Relationship: Married with one daughter, who is 17
Interests: Sports, motorcycling, fishing, music.
Other:  Owns a pistol for house protection

Swing voter that voted Trump-Biden (Biden being a fellow Catholic couldn't hurt).

GENDER: Male
AGE: 39
RACE: Chinese on his father's side (his father being a Chinese immigrant); mother's side is Germans who came to the US in the 1870s
SEXUALITY: Straight
RELIGION: Very "casually" a Catholic...his mother was a Catholic and he went to church on Sundays and the rest of it, but now he doesn't really practice religion and it's not a part of his life by any means (though when asked about his religion, he nonetheless responds Catholic rather than agnostic/atheistic)
HOMETOWN: Bellevue, WA
CURRENT RESIDENCE: Hillsboro, OR (moved from Bellevue as a 15-year-old)
EDUCATION: High school graduate. He nearly attended Oregon State University, but he was ultimately rejected (he attributed it to "affirmative action").
OCCUPATION: He's unemployed but works odd jobs (such as substitute teacher) when he can find them, and does a lot of volunteer work (such as working at soup kitchens and food drives and the like)
INCOME: Varies. Tends to range from $40,000 to $55,000 a year.
RELATIONSHIPS: Has had some casual one-night stands, but no serious relationships.
CHILDREN: None
INTERESTS: Volunteer work, listening to '90s music, reading about Eurasian history
OTHER NOTES: He lived with his parents until he was 30, at which point they both died in a car accident. He was willed the family's house, where he has lived ever since. The house had two bedrooms, and for a while he allowed a tenant to stay in one of the rooms and use common areas such as kitchen, living room, etcetera at times, for a low rent. He stopped charging the rent when COVID started, but asked for it again in March of 2022. When refused, he drew a pistol and warned the longtime tenant (had been staying for four or five years) to either get out or fork over the rent. Was nearly arrested for that - had to pay a fine - but the tenant is gone now.

Hmm, with some of his positions, I could see him voting for some Republicans. More of the case when he was denied the university entry by ranting about affirmation action, less so when having to deal with living on his own terms without the assistance of his parents. By the present time he's  starting to be less kind to authority in general, making him a non voter in the last three elections.

Republican, initially was a conservative Democrat who voted for Gore in 2000 and Obama in 2008 and will occasionally vote for a Democrat at the local level but otherwise pretty consistently GOP.

The following is based loosely on several people.

Gender: Male
Age: 79
Race/Ethnicity: White (English/German/Dutch father, Russian-Jewish mother)
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Marital Status: Divorced, four children and one grandchild
Religion: Atheist
Hometown: Rockaway Beach, Brooklyn, NY
Current Location: Oyster Bay, Long Island
Occupation: Retired Corporate Attorney who still works part time on a mostly pro bono basis
Education: Law School
Interests: Mets baseball, Civil War movies/reenacting/memorabilia collecting, Gardening, New York City history, fine dining, Wine Connoisseaur, Pipe Tobacco

Other: Grew up working class in Brooklyn. His father was a city employee and WWII vet of English, German and Dutch descent. One direct ancestor was originally from the south and settled in New York after having fought for the confederacy, another fought for the union. He has long felt bad about having had a defermit to go to Law School during Vietnam when several friends of his were killed and has since overcompensated with his civil war enthusiasm and when he was younger occasional reenacting as both union and confederate to honor his ancestors. This guilt over not having served in Vietnam was compounded by an even greater survivors guilt at the fact that his office was on the 103rd story of the World Trade Center and nearly all of his co-workers were killed on 9/11. He only survived because he'd been home from work recovering from back surgery on that day.

Republican, initially was a conservative Democrat who voted for Gore in 2000 and Obama in 2008 and will occasionally vote for a Democrat at the local level but otherwise pretty consistently GOP.

The following is based loosely on several people.

Gender: Male
Age: 79
Race/Ethnicity: White (English/German/Dutch father, Russian-Jewish mother)
Sexual Orientation: Straight

Other: Grew up working class in Brooklyn. His father was a city employee and WWII vet of English, German and Dutch descent. One direct ancestor was originally from the south and settled in New York after having fought for the confederacy, another fought for the union. He has long felt bad about having had a defermit to go to Law School during Vietnam when several friends of his were killed and has since overcompensated with his civil war enthusiasm and when he was younger occasional reenacting as both union and confederate to honor his ancestors. This guilt over not having served in Vietnam was compounded by an even greater survivors guilt at the fact that his office was on the 103rd story of the World Trade Center and nearly all of his co-workers were killed on 9/11. He only survived because he'd been home from work recovering from back surgery on that day.

Many informations you've given really tend to make me believe he's a conservative. Yeah, he lives in Denver but still otherwise he really fits the republican stereotype. So I'd say he's a republican who didn't vote for Trump in the primaries but still voted for him twice in the General. Might have chosen Chris Christie in the primaries.

Alright, this one is actually someone I know. Once someone is going to post the next message, I'm going to tell his voting record and what are his political beliefs.

Race: Asian american of Korean ancestry.
Gender: Male
Age: Late 30s
Marital: Unmarried, single, has frequent short relations/hookups
Children: none
Education: Ivy League school
Occupation: Works in financial markets
Location/Hometown: He was born in the Georgia suburbs, went to an Ivy League School and then moved to Los Angeles County.
Sexual orientation: Straight
Religion: Atheist, was raised as a protestant in Georgia.
Interests: Trips, American politics, social media.

I'm going to assume this guy was raised by South Korean immigrants as opposed to White Americans who adopted him from the motherland. D-leaning/anti-Trump Indie but not a fan of more hardline progressives within the Democratic party. If he lives in LAX proper and voted this year he likely supported Rick Caruso. Not much else to go off of.

Based on a real person I don't know IRL

Age: around 40
Gender: Male
Race: Mixed (South Asian father, non-Hispanic white mother)
Religion: nothing in particular but attended a Catholic high school
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Education: JD from an Ivy
Occupation: Media company CEO, former charter school superintendent, podcast host
Family/relationships: Married with 1 kid
Hometown: Staten Island
Current location: Metro NYC
Other: father left during his childhood, got in a lot of trouble during middle school (alcohol poisoning, truancy, multiple suspensions and arrests for fighting), barely got into a 2nd-tier state school for college

Yeah, it's Mike Baxter (Tim Allen's character from Last Man Standing) and he is definitely a conservative. The only thing that would really put it into doubt is the fact that he lives in Denver, but even then, the show first premiered over 10 years ago when Colorado was much less blue than it is now.

This guy was born in Dekalb county, GA. At the time, it was way less black than it is today but still had many of them. His Korean American conservative parents had very bad experiences with african americans and moved when the guy was a young kid to Gwinnett county, GA, which was MUCH whiter and less black than it is today. He was a good student. His parents went often to church. He has been earning a lot of money since he graduated from an Ivy League School. He's a pessimistic person who likes smart and successful people. Most of his friends are liberals despite being a staunch conservative on not all but most issues. He has a very low opinion of black people and the white working class. He's attracted to white women and often has sex with some of them.

He's a conservative but is pro-choice, even says abortion is good because without it, there would be more crimes and poor people. Doesn't mind gay people and gay marriage but is annoyed by Pride Month and gender ideology. He's very tough on crime, believes we don't have an over incarceration problem but an under incarceration problem. He's also very right wing on immigration, more so than Trump.   

Voted republican every time in his life. Was enthusiastic about Mitt Romney in 2012. Supported Marco Rubio in 2016 Primaries then Ted Cruz. Voted for Trump in 2016 because believed he would be a better President than Hillary. He also voted for him in 2020. But he hates Trump and wouldn't even vote for him if he's the 2024 GOP nominee. He's an enthusiastic DeSantis 2024 supporter.

Oh, this thread is back? Fun!

For khuzifenq's I'm going to say that he's pretty firmly but generically center-left. If his podcast is political then it's probably similar to the ones former Obamaworld people have.

I'll do a fictional character, which is what I often did previous times this thread has been active. Bonus points if you can guess who it is.

Age: 19
Gender: Female
Race: White
Marital status: Unmarried. Romantically interested in a member of her extended family, vaguely sexually interested in her best friend.
Children: None
Education: Secondary school
Occupation: Domestic worker
Hometown: Portsmouth, England
Current location: Northampton, England
Sexual orientation: Who the hell knows?
Religion: C of E, Evangelical churchmanship
Interests: Nature, fiber crafts, moral theology
Other: Extensive family ties to the Royal Navy. The family member she's interested in is distantly related enough for it not to be objectively inappropriate but closely related enough for it to be weird.

Answering this because "radical centrist" frankly is a terrible answer and because I love the fictional characters you bring up, although I couldn't tell who this one is. Her attributes are peculiar enough to make her views potentially unusual but not peculiar in a single direction for me to not default to "safe Labour because she is a 19-year-old girl"... which is not applicable to the likely 19th century setting she actually comes from, but she might still have been a sympathizer of the labour movement or socialism for class and philosophical reasons.

This one would code to me as pretty Republican if it said White instead of Mexican... I am going to say she used to be a Democrat but voted Trump in 2020 and is more Republican-leaning going forward although probably still mostly marked D boxes in 2022.
