Here in Germany we have a term that is "Stammwähler" which could translate to "patron voter".
A "Stammwähler" is a person who has not and probably will not change his political ideology in years and is likely to elect the same party for his entire life.
Traditionaly conservative, socialist or other parts of our countries which have constantly voted the same people into power are considered to do so because of "Stammwähler".
Yet in recent years, our country started to go through a development of which some people say that it means the end of the "Stammwähler"
Traditionaly conservative ereas started voting leftwing, and leftwing ereas started voting conservatives. The population demographic has changed and certain parts of the population are no longer in need of idiology or party structures.
The arguments have started to be the determening factor here and more and more voters want to be convinced and not vote out of tradition or klinging on to an ideology.
Maybe the end of the "Stammwähler" is coming to the US?
