Black Georgian voter who slipped into a coma after a car accident right before the 1932 election, clearly impressed with FDR and managed to briefly rally in the mid-70s before slipping into one again and not waking until 2008.

You've never been to Birmingham clearly.

Anyway, methinks an rabid anti-war humanitarian fits the bill here.

Southern progressive and devout pro-temperance Baptist from an ancestrally unionist family in Tennessee who voted for Hoover in 28 mainly on that one issue. When prohibition was repealed they became politically apathetic, disliking the Democrats for what they saw as moral corruption and an association with the Dixiecrats that they dispised and Republicans for being supportive of big business. In 1976 said voter briefly got excited about Carter who shared there faith and political views. As a centurnarian who had grown up in the south this person was simply amazed that an African-American could have a chance at getting elected president so they voted for Obama.

This, but he could also be from any other Southern state.

Wouldn't even have to be black for that matter given the inroads that Hoover made in the south. Maybe a dieheard pro civil rights unionist from Winston County Alabama.

1928 would be about the hardest time since the Civil War for a black person to vote and get their ballot counted anywhere in the Deep South.

This is the most plausible story I can see: rural Baptist East Tennessee ancestral civil rights Republican.

Evangelical Protestant from rural Florida who voted for Hoover in 1928 to keep the dastardly Papist Smith out of the White House and supported Carter because he was a good Southern boy. Thirty years after his death, his name was used for voter fraud.
