Her age and financial background suggests she started out as a moderate Republican. I'm assuming she's against racism, sexism, xenophobia and for education, childcare, healthcare. I'm also going to guess she is pro-choice on abortion.

She voted for Bush 41 in 1988, because of national security. Liking Bill Clinton's emphasis on healthcare in 1992, she voted Dem in 1992, 1996, and 2000. After 9/11, she was a "security Mom" and voted Bush 43 in 2004. In 2008 she considered McCain, but rejected him after he nominated Palin, whom she considers too "folksy" and unqualified; she voted Obama. Similarly, in 2012, she considered Romney, but near the end of the campaign when he failed to effectively refute ads warning us that a vote for Romney would take us back 60 years, she reluctantly voted Obama again. In 2016, it was no contest: Trump represented the opposite of everything she stood for. She voted Hillary.

To mathstatman's post: Republican Trump voter (great analysis. The woman I had in mind was probably slightly more liberal than you guessed but it's definitely likely she was a Tilt R moderate before Bush and Trump)

To TimTurner's: Democratic Hillary voter (since he's White and Muslim, is he Syrian or Lebanese?)

Her religion, sexual orientation, and issues suggest she feels totally alienated by Trump and the GOP. I'd say she's a Democrat, probably looking for a left-center candidate who will maintain a strong military while protecting LGBT+ and reproductive rights.

uhh guess I'll skip the New Jersey guy

Either a Clinton or Stien voter. The fact that she's in Michigan points to Clinton, but her opposition to vaccinations, support for BLM, and dislike of GMOs suggests she might have drifted more to Stein. Almost certainly voted Sanders in the primary. Most likely will vote for Warren or Harris in the 2020 primary. Probably hates Scott Walker and Nancy Pelosi equally.

Typically votes Republican, but occasionally breaks with the party to vote for socially conservative Democrats. Begrudgingly voted for Trump in 2016 due to Pence being on the VP ticket.

Well, I would say strong progressive despite the white male factor because they seem like the archetypal "young LGBT urban progressive", but given the similarities to a certain prominent Oregonian, I'm going to say left-libertarian. Supported Johnson and switched allegiance to the Dems after the election.

Would've been a Rockerfeller Republican back in the day, but is now a Dem-leaning independent. A consummate anti-Trump progressive globalist. Voted straight-ticket Democratic in 2016, probably also supported Obama and Gore in previous election cycles.

Probably apolitical, seems like he probably doesn't really pay attention to politics and spends time on his job, finances, and outdoorsy stuff.

I'd say he voted for Hillary due to racism in the Republican party. I'm not sure about Christian Arabs or their voting habits. Are they mostly GOP'ers? Dems? Split?

Or check to see if someone’s already posted about the person you were going to post about.

There’s no way Thunder98 was responding to your hypothetical 23 year old voter if they mentioned 2000 and 2004... The person you posted either voted for Hillary or Stein in the 2016 general election but definitely supported Bernie in the primaries.

AFAIK Catholic and Orthodox Arabs are equally Dem as Muslim Arabs, while Protestant Arabs are GOP-leaning.
