Trump-curious Democrat, voted for Obama twice.  As a general rule, non-Christian religion other than Orthodox Judaism = automatic Dem classification, unless their income is >>$200K or they are in a stereotypical unanimous R industry. And yes, Mormons are Christians.

On that note: The partial fracking inventor's Indian American practicing Hindu business partner, who was the only woman in the oil company partnership.  She has the same income he does ($10M interest on $350M in investments).  She's a 1st generation immigrant born in Bangalore and has also retired to a ranch in the Texas Hill Country.  How does she vote?



When I gave the example of an Atheist NYPD detective that wouldn't necessarily be a 100% R industry, though definitely R leaning. I think that it was only the additional detail of his "hating religion in general and lost friends on 9-11," that would probably imply a strong hatred of Islam in particular which combined with being a cop might lead to his supporting Trump.

The Hindu fracking woman votes Republican and hates herself for it.

Female Italian-American lawyer living in New Jersey, 60, lapsed Catholic but still with a culturally traditional streak, has worked mostly in Social Security law. Never married, no children, isn't quite sure of her own sexual orientation.

Probably liberal if she oftentimes is on the side of older folks getting screwed out of their social security money. Pro-Life also though but usually votes Democrat except for 2014 in response to an over focus on abortion and birth control. Leaning towards supporting Bernie in 2016.

Conservative Jewish Journalist in his late 50s living in Brooklyn, raised Hasidic but left the community years ago and is estranged from family since his twenties when his fondness for cross dressing was discovered. Twice divorced and unable to see kids from first marriage. Still keeps kosher and is very traditionalist on social issues.

Sounds like a Democrat, although his social conservatism might lead him to supporting some Republicans. Plans on voting for Bernie next week, although was intrigued by Kasich at certain times.

(Oh, and I had one written for the Italian-American female lawyer before Zen Lunatic ninja'd me: sounds like a Democrat, but maybe with a moderate/communitarian streak. Let's say a Hillary voter, but would consider Kasich over Bernie.)

Alright, 53-year-old white male, one of the highest paid doctors in Salt Lake City, Utah. Married for 30 years next month, has 3 grown kids and another about to graduate. He was raised Mormon but is now Agnostic.

I actually think that Democrats with a moderate/socially conservative streak are more likely to vote Bernie then Hillary this time around though the might have leaned more towards Hillary in 2008, namely because the whole center of gravity in the party has shifted towards a focus on social issues above all else whereas Bernie is closer to an old school meat and potatoes Democrat.

The Mormon, even if he isn't religious any more is probably still a reliable Republican, voted Kasich in the primary but detests Trump and would vote third party in the general.

Doesn't vote and doesn't really care but, if I had to guess he likes Bernie but I don't think he'd care.

29 year old Muslim man who was born in Mosul, Iraq to a very religious family and he moved here in 2000 with his mother after his fathers death. He is married to a Brazillian religious Catholic and has two children. By night he is a Quranic Scholar but by day he works at a Gold Standard Think Tank and is a former construction worker. He makes around $95,000 a year and he lives in a highly Hasidic community and Brooklyn and is friend with a local Rebbe he also is voting in the New York Primary this week.

Actually he is going to vote for Bernie next week because he hates Hillary while he is a big supporter of the Pauls and a libertarian but will consider voting Kasich or Cruz if Hillary is the nominee and will support the libertarian if Trump is the nominee.

I can't imagine a very religious Muslim being a libertarian, although I'd love to be surprised.

Anyway,

Age: 68

Occupation: Retired; worked at a car manufacturer beforehand
Education: College degree
Religion: Catholic
Marital Status: Married
Location: Detroit, Michigan
Birthplace: New York, New York

Sounds like a Hillary voter, although I guess I could see him being a Kasich voter.
