Certainly doubt that *jazz* listeners voted for Trump.

Possibly classical too, I can imagine "never Trump" GOP types are over-represented there.

Even rock can likely be sub-divided - I expect most prog-heads were pro-Biden.

Anyone still regularly listening to AM/FM radio has to skew Republican, no?

Classical music listeners are an educated lot. Who else would listen to hour-long works such as Bruckner's seventh symphony? Who else would listen to music identified by such generic titles as "Mozart, String Quartet in G major, K. 387"?  Who else listens to opera? I'm guessing that the audience for classical music is heavily Jewish and East Asian, horrid demographics for Trump supporters.

Folk and jazz -- much the same. R&B is no longer on radio broadcasts because its audience is OLD, but that is aging blacks, another horrible demographic for Trump supporters.

The only genres that immediately seem like obvious Republican leans are country music and Christian music.  Maybe rock music too, depending on the type.  The rest probably range from neutral to super Democratic.  I would also think that Republicans would be disproportionately likely to listen to talk radio, including non-political things like sports talk radio.

Can someone explain to me why jazz listeners would be a pro-Trump group?

I just figured jazz listeners were on the older side. Its basically a niche sadly
