Quote:"Klan activism loosened entrenched party loyalties and directly contributed to the dealignment of white voters from the Democratic Party in the 1960s," writes a research team led by sociologist Rory McVeigh of the University of Notre Dame. "This initial untethering process was critical to the more durable subsequent realignment with the Republican Party."

Looking at a longer period—between 1960s and 2000—they found that "Klan counties show an average 3.4 percent greater increase in Republican voting compared to non-Klan counties."

The KKK isn't really a political affiliation, but if you had to lump its members into a category, it would typically fall under Christian Conservative. The tend to favor the GOP since the early 1960s, and more much since the 80s. To try and put Democrats and the Klan in together is a stretch at best, and for any type of connection you have to go back a century when future southern GOP lawmakers migrated from the Demcratic party.
