Rural populations used to be ‘progressive’, economically. Farmers were a large part of the economic liberals during the New Deal.

What changed that a lot was the appeal made by the GOP to white voters, starting with the Southern Strategy and continuing into today’s self-deporation/just want free stuff/birtherism strategy.
