They were not affected directly

Explanation:

Unlike liberals, conservatives do not think that minorites and women should be protected by specific laws. They believed in responsability and thought women and minorites should rely on themselves to improve their lots. These were not the traditional components of their electorate. Conservatives are made firstly of white males, minorities and women voted for Democrats.
