Describe lesser known archetypes(or people you've met) that split their tickets.

I'll start with real ones;
A 20yo Mexican-American community college student who voted Biden-Tillis-downballot Ds
A very online progressive female university student who voted all D except Troxler for NC Agriculture Commissioner
Military enlisted male that voted third party for president, Cal Cunningham and the rest Republican
Sanders '16, Trump '16, downballot Ds -> Sanders '20, Biden '20, downballot Rs older rural non-college white PA woman

Surprisingly she thought voting out Troxler would impact the quality of the state fair and that the office was basically inconsequential.

I think my stepdad literally alternated between voting for Republicans and Democrats on his ballot

Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

While my mom and I were living in New Jersey when I was growing up, she'd vote straight D except for Constituent Services God Chris Smith, even though my mom is an unreconstructed seventies feminist and Smith is an abortion hardliner.

My grandmother is a Trump '16/Trump '20, Astorino '14/Molinaro '18, Babinec '16/Brindisi '18/Brindisi '20 voter.

Conclusion: I think she just really dislikes Claudia Tenney.

Funny enough in 2020 I met a split ticket voter in Staten Island that was voting for Astorino and the Democrat running (who lost by like fifteen points) which definitely made him a pretty radical outlier in that election cycle, the opposite (A Cuomo-Michael Grimm voter) was far more common.
