Income. Low-income voters tend to favor the Democratic Party while high-income voters tend to support the Republican Party. President George W.

In the 2006 House races, the voters with incomes over $50,000 were 49% Republican, while those under were 38%
Military. Republicans hold a large majority in the armed services, with 57% of active military personnel and 66% of officers identified as Republican in 2003 link
