Do certain occupations tend to lean politically left or right? 

I found this intriguing data set from Zippia. Using data from the Federal Election Commission donors' self-reported occupational status, I show the spectrum of occupations leaning very Democratic to very Republican. While not all occupations are shown and some are ambiguous or redundant, I found the ones in the middle (split closest to 50/50) to be the most interesting, like realtor.


FUN FACT: This graphic was the first of its kind to utilize the new slideshow feature on the Voronoi app, introduced in December 2024. Visual Capitalist Editor-in-Chief and Founder Jeff Desjardins made a praiseworthy post on LinkedIn about my piece here.
