Regions with extremely rigid ideological voters

[I’m not Stu]

California's Emerald Coast always votes for the most liberal candidate (Kevin de Leon won it despite being from Los Angeles). The Idaho Panhandle always votes for the most extreme candidates in GOP primaries (Janice McGeachin won it in 2022 despite being from Idaho Falls and losing the state in a landslide). What other regions are not just partisan, but extremely rigid in ideology?

[100% pro-life no matter what]

Most Southern suburbs tend to vote for the most "movement conservative"* candidate in GOP primaries

*Not to be confused with MAGA

Jones County, Mississippi for the GOP. Maybe parts of Seattle for Democrats?

Capitol Hill always votes for the furthest left candidate, but many parts of the city are not like that.

There’s like a dozen different personalities and parties voting for that candidate

Recently gentrified neighborhoods and the most DSA-adjacent candidate in Democratic primaries? Kinda the mirror image of ER’s example.

Did that area that voted against Jenny Durkan in 2017?

Yes, it voted for Cary Moon in the general and was her strongest area. It voted for Nikkita Oliver in the primary, though.

What makes it that liberal?

Most of the southern half of South Korea. Take a look at a map of basically any of their presidential elections since the popular vote was established in 1987.

Idk if it's anything beyond LGBT community-driven gentrification and a history of bohemianism. Wikipedia says Capitol Hill used to have a reputation for being something of a Catholic enclave.

It's so very incredibly gay. CHAZ was there. Fun place.

The other thing worth mentioning is that Capitol Hill is very renter heavy and is fairly young in general. Voters in Seattle's 3rd City Council district, which approximates Capitol Hill, are 58% millennial or Gen Z, whereas the rest of the city comes to 49%.

I suspect  ideological rigidity corresponds with an educated populace as well as transisent living so I suspect college towns have very ideologicaly rigid voting patterns.

Northern Georgia. MTG's district is GA-14, which usually gives Republicans 75% of the vote. And they always vote for the most far right candidiate in the primary

[smoltchanov]

Almost all Bay Area. Usually - almost all struggle is between liberal and very liberal Democrats, with Republicans being irrelevant. As i have said in another topic - i don't know about single Republican (not FORMER Republican, but - present day) officeholder on county level in any of 9 counties, comprising it. Neither - in any city of substantial size.

The same - in Manhattan. Days of the "Upper East Side liberal Republicans" are gone and all fights are between different shades of liberal Democrats...

Pretty sure her district voted for Brian Kemp against Perdue.

Kemp won every county in the state, so of course he won GA-14. The icing on the cake is that Raffensperger won that district.

Potter County, PA voted for Kathy Barnette in the 2022 GOP Senate primary. Also, Greene County, MS voted for Chris McDaniel in the primaries (2014 and 2018 Senate, 2023 lieutenant gubernatorial).

MTG did have to go through a runoff though and she only won it by 10%, so it was a fairly close call.

Not the Bay Area. Feinstein won the Bay Area (and even won the city of Berkeley) in 2018.

[It’s so Joever]

Boulder county probably.

Northampton, MA?

Scottish tories are found most often in ridings bordering England.

And also voted for Brad Raffensperger against Jody Hice?
