States with a fair amount of Republicans who are business conservatives

[I’m not Stu]

What states have a fair amount of Republicans who are business conservatives, as opposed to right wing populists? In California, the Los Angeles area has some. Many of the few Bay Area Republicans are business conservatives. I would imagine New York is another state like this. Any other states like this?

Every state has a “fair amount” of “business conservatives” because business conservatives are a fair amount of the GOP

House districts like CA-39, CA-45, and CA-48 have many. Those three districts voted for Dianne Feinstein, but not Gavin Newsom.

Why does that exactly mean they’re full of “business conservatives”?

Welcome to an ERM64man thread. Escape while you still can.

[Non Swing Voter]

States with suburbs directly outside of major non-southern cities.

Tier 1 for this: CA, WA, NY, MA, CT, NJ, IL

Tier 2: VA, MD, PA, MN, AZ, CO, RI, NH

TX also probably has a fair amount but they're probably social conservatives.  A lot of those types in the states above are just voting GOP because they want a tax cut or want to avoid a tax increase.

I broadly agree with the above list.
TX also had loads of business conservatives but the  GOP conservativism here combines tax cuts and social conservativism.
