@nova There's certainly an element of personal finances that come into it. The people in my family who have escaped poverty and war and lean a bit to the right will always vote for the party that taxes lower (not in the US mind you). They grew up not trusting the government and would prefer to hand over as little of their money as possible. I've heard it referred to as short-sighted and voting against best interests, but it's deeper than that.
