#FBPE Lib Dem. Might have considered Starmer's Labour before it became clear that Starmer's Labour is still left-wing on material issues.

I'll do another literary one.

That was actually my mother. You were pretty close - she has voted Lib Dem in at least the last four elections, although above all she is an anti-Tory voter (she has never voted for the party), and will vote Labour if she thinks they have the best chance of beating the Tories, and providing the candidate is not Momentum-backed/ a rabid Corbynite. As for #FBPE, she doesn’t have Twitter, and while she is very anti-Brexit, it is not to the exclusion of all other issues.

What book is that even though. A quick Google scan suggests Joseph Citro?

Interesting.
Mine was Pierre Ruche from Denis Guedj's The Parrot's Theorem. What can I do, I study Mathematics.

Yours is Sherlock Holmes who I imagine as very apolitical and hostile (but in a cunning and hyperintellectual way) towards all politicians.

I'll let someone else create the next character.

For some reason I can only picture such a person as apolitical. If I had to choose something, I'd say Obama-Trump-Biden voter just because he's from ME-02.

Political independent who is left on issues like environment/free college/worker's protections and favors a more hands-off approach on civil liberties. She supported Sanders in the Democratic Primary in 2016 and 2020, voted for Stein in the 2016 general, but is voting for Biden this time because the Trump presidency has been a disaster for people like her.

Probably the kind of Trump voter who isn't necessarily an ideologue but wouldn't dream of voting otherwise. "Culturally MAGA", basically.

This one is purely hypothetical, but is a type of person that really does exist:

Gender: Female
Age: 97
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Current Location: Omaha, Nebraska
Hometown: Some small town in Iowa
Race: White
Relationship Status: Widowed
Religion: Non-practicing Reformed Christian
Education: Some college, 75 years ago
Occupation: Retired
Other: WWII veteran (Women's Army Corps). Didn't see the front, but was stationed in the European Theater. Still in good mental health despite physical decrepitude; still volunteers at local charities.
