Hmm you could imagine this type voting Trump. Perhaps one who is more concerned about healthcare than immigration, i.e. more economic focused than social. Reagan Democrat type who dislikes Trump? Bangor, ME with military connection hence support for Bush 43?
Somewhat out of kilter with what I just said, Orange County CA posted good scores for Perot, swung back to Bush 00/04 then was (relatively) good for Obama 2008 and good for Clinton/Biden. So maybe slightly more downscale OC?

Upper middle class white country club type that is OK with right wing foreign policy but is also moderate on social issues and turned off by dysfunction, corruption, divisiveness and lies.

Ancestral Republican from Vermont who is centrist on economics and mildly libertarian on social issues except immigration and trade. Generally pro-military but suspicious of unnecessary wars.

A social moralist, obviously, who despises what she perceives as "hound dogs" who ain't never caught a rabbit and will never be a friend of hers.

Somebody around the age of 60 who began voting as soon as they could, got wrapped up in the youth sentiment of "Republicans are cool", became jaded in their late 20s/early 30s and protest-voted (or lack thereof), who later settled into a high-paying job reliant upon the federal government (think defense contractor employee in NoVA) and who has since voted for the party that's most "stable" or amenable to their field of employment.

It's also very similar to my mother's voting record (save for 2004, 2008 & 2012).

This pretty much matches my father's voting record, except he voted Clinton in '96 and Romney in '12. He was also too young in '84 but would have definitely voted for Reagan. He's a typical Suburban "republican" (stopped identifying as one after Trump) who's fiscally conservative and socially moderate. He also places a lot of value on the candidates personality, so even though he disliked Clinton, Trump absolutely repulses him, and in '08 he says he would have voted for McCain but was afraid of the possibility of a Palin presidency. Demographically, that voter is definitely some kind of White suburban moderate.
