Crypto currencies generally are more popular with people who have less trust in the state, while people who trust states and their currencies are more sceptical. The same line exists in the Democratic/Republican divide. The question is how Facebook will market and promote their wallet and efforts. My assumption is that for end users this will be promoted as a way to buy and sell things and services via Facebook platforms (pay my cab driver via WhatsApp while travelling etc.) and the fact it's a crypto currency underneath is an attempt to reassure other financial players that Facebook won't take over their business, but allows interacting (in the end users have to convert from/to local currency, which requires banks etc.) And with that it's less a topic in that political divide.
