The only one I know with any certainty:

Maternal Grandmother
1960: Kennedy
1964: Johnson
1968: Nixon
1972: Nixon
1976: Carter
1980: Carter
1984: Reagan
1988: ?
1992: ?
1996: ?
2000: ?
2004: Bush
2008: McCain
2012: Romney

As you can see, I don't know how my grandma voted between 1988 and 2000.  I always assumed she voted for Dukakis in '88, but mostly because my mother worked on his campaign.  I think she supported Bush in '92 and Clinton in '96, but I don't know for sure because she may have missed a year in that time.

I doubt any of my grandparents ever voted for a Dem. None of them were religious, but they thought they knew "sin" when they saw it, and Dems = sin in their minds.

Rum, Romanism, and rebellion? Smiley

That's how everyone thought in Maine until Muskie, haha.
Wasn't he Catholic?
