What sorts of voters are the most ideologically right wing? I mean in terms of supporting right wing ideas (define as you wish), not necessarily in terms of percentage vote for parties of the right.

I think in America it might have been the Sunbelt suburbs of old. What sorts of people? Who now?
In Europe, I think the perhaps Spanish upper classes - look at the results in Salamanca or La Moraleja for example, and how well Vox does. I gather they are very religious, fiercely unionist and perhaps there is a Francoist influence.

In the US it is white evangelical protestants that have middle-higher incomes.

Rural or small town small business owners, especially in the South and Great Plains.

We had a thread like this a while back and I submitted LA-01 as the most ideologically right wing district, as an affluent suburban zone which is also quite invested in rather white nationalist-adjacent politics and evangelical Christianity.

The county profiled in that article is so right-wing that it voted for Biden by 14 points.

Basically this, which is the bubble I almost exclusively live in.  As far right as I am, in my day to day life (outside of the internet), I might hear the same number of opinions I disagree with from the left as that I disagree with from the right.

I find the perspicacity of the posters on this thread to be most excellent.

All three of them!  Smiley

I actually do wonder if there are Orthodox Jews who live in Wyoming.

I'd say churchgoing business owners are a decent candidate.

Straight white christian male who works in oil and gas, the industry is incredibly right-wing to an incredible degree. Calgary a multicultural city gives it's conservatives record margins.
