Caucus of Justice members generally earn the votes of those who benefited from or seek to return to the pre-Kirosocialist order of Kiravian society, including Southerners, landowners, Coscivian Orthodox clerics and parishoners, and residents of more traditional rural villages operating on premodern systems of labour organisation and land tenure. However, in the post-Kirosocialist era, Caucus members have worked to expand their coalition and court new groups of voters, such as small business owners (especially in rural and semi-rural areas), people in neglected and alienated regions (particularly inland ones) of northern and western states, exurbanites, and immigrant groups.

The strongest and most crucial mass of support for the Caucus is in South Kirav, where an agrarian semi-manorial economy and a strong local identity steeped in traditional values and premodern modes of life pair with a long history of hostility toward the Northern-dominated federal government ensure overwhelming support for the Southern Green-Right family of parties, most of which completely dominate the internal politics of their respective states, and all of which are affiliated with the Caucus of Justice.

The other most critical regional base for the caucus is [[Æonara]], which regularly elects conservative Delegates from the (SRA-affiliated) [[Renaissance Party]] who choose to caucus with the CJ.


The Caucus of Justice receives strong electoral support from certain ethnic and religious minority communities. Kiravian Old Conservatives were noted defenders of the traditional autonomy, land tenure, and other historic privileges held by [[Aboriginal Kiravites|Aboriginal Kiravite]] communities, and many Aboriginals fought for traditionalist militia during the [[Colour Wars]]. Today, Aboriginals living on rural and tribal land, especially in the central third of Great Kirav, are a reliable voter bloc for Caucus of Justice candidates, though support from the Aboriginal population overall has eroded as many Aboriginals have moved to urban areas and shifted towards the CSU and NDA. Homeland Heritage Partnership, a CJ-aligned political organising committee, directs outreach efforts toward Aboriginal voters in West Kirav (who historically have very low levels of political engagement), building on these communities' strong distrust of the federal government and social engineering and their reverence for traditional lifestyles and institutions.
