From my experience, people on the right seem more likely to be single issue voters. Like you have your pro-gun people who care primarily about that one issue and may not have strong views about abortion, gay marriage, immigration, etc. and vice versa. This leads to a hodge podge of views.
Whereas on the left there seems to be a more uniform ideology revolving around empathy & equality. Things like expanding healthcare, education, labor rights, LGBT rights, drug reform, etc. all fit into a cohesive idea of lifting up the working class, those in need & marginalized groups. In my view, the right is a coalition of groups who have their own specific grievance while the left is a coalition of groups trying to create equality. |
This very much! There are people who will hate 90% of Trumps Policies, despise the tarrifs (or be ignorant to them) but vote for him in over something singular like Immigration |
Yep, we see that a lot when things like minimum wage increase, marijuana legalization or abortion access become law at the state level through ballot initiatives then those same states will turn around and vote in people who are opposed to those things.
