Are you joking? 29% of Americans identify as Republicans, 44% as "right-leaning." I assume most of them live "openly." Fox News, openly politically right-leaning, remains the most-watched network in the US. Members of my own family and circle of friends lean right, openly and proudly, just like I lean progressive, openly.
The other large democracy in North America -- Mexico -- has a large and visible right-leaning constituency.
Maybe in the echo chambers of the Bay Area or New York or LA expressing right-leaning political views gets a dismissive reaction, but that certainly isn't the case across North America.

Looking at the rest of North America, it looks like lots of Canadians openly act on right-leaning political beliefs:
