    You can probably actually do this reliably in cases where those political views work against the persons interests. It’s not like people voting against their own interests is an uncommon phenomenon.

      It’s very possible to vote against your own interests for the good of society though- a billionaire might vote to increase taxes on himself, for example.

      One of the many issues with the majority of right-wing voters in the US is that the votes they cast are against both their best interests and the interests of society, and that’s what makes them evil and/or stupid.
