In 2008, Nader got an unusually high number of votes, more than got in even 2000, where he did much better nationwide. The answer to why this happened it somewhat obvious (PUMA types), but these people REALLY must have wanted to vote for a white liberal. How did they go in the 2010 Senate, 2014 Senate, Gov, 2016 Senate, 2016 and 2016 Pres, etc..
here is my guess-
2010 Senate. Very low turnout, but this was Lincoln's old stomping ground so they probably went for her mostly.
2012 President- This is where it gets tricky. Do they go all in for Romney, or do they back a Johnson type? Looking at the results, it appears that Nader's vote totals in 08 correlate with Romney's gain, so it appears they voted Romney.
2014- They were still open to backing dems however, with them largely backing Mike Ross in 2014, and even probably Pryor too!
2016- This is where I think they go full Trump. They do, however, consider John Eldridge and a lot vote for him!
any thoughts!
