I would say jazz.  Maybe indie rock... but I'd think indie rock fans tend to be somewhat apathetic toward politics.

Discus.

What does track and field, especially discus, have anything to do with it?

Indie rock and nothing else is coming close out of these options.

Rap/Hip Hop definitely by far. Guys, which votes more Democrat, Williamsburg or Bed Stuy? (excluding the Hasidic Jews in Willaimsburg even).

Hip hop is more mainstream.

Most hip hop fans are suburban white kids.

Even on this forum, the lines are drawn clear.

Hip-hop/rap, although indie rock comes a close second in my opinion.

Hip Hop, according to a 2011 analysis by the Echo Nest, which powers the customized webcasts at Spotify and iHeartRadio, among other sites.  That's in general.  Specific artists who pop most often on the playlists of registered Democrats include:

Rihanna
Jay-Z
Madonna
Lady Gaga
Katy Perry
Snoop Dogg
Chris Brown
Usher
Eminem

Hip-hop due to the black factor, but if you're talking whites than indie rock.

Jazz would work too - it has black links and most people that listen to it seem to be pretty alternative in their outlook.

Being a classical musician and student composer, I can tell you that 95% of classical musicians and composers are Dems.  Oddly, the audience is around 50-50.  Don't know enough about the others to say.

Not really odd (rich white people).
