Part of it is how one defines “left and right”, because that is based upon one’s views. Are they self identifying?

That said, from personal experience where I live I don’t disagree. The republican voters I meet cover a wider range of views than the democrats I meet.

Interesting. Why do you think that is? @trollslayer

@jackjjackson short answer: many are simply anti-democrat or anti government in general. “Middle finger” attitudes. Issues like abortion they could care less about. They just want lower taxes and less interaction with the government - and to them Republican is the only choice.

Makes good sense other than the middle finger part 🤣 @trollslayer
