The only ones I would characterize towards conservative in the list would be Sewanee and Rhodes. Denison and Bucknell are more explicitly career-oriented than the others which maybe creates a more moderate/conservative vibe. The rest are fairly liberal--maybe Oberlin would be typecast as the most liberal of this group. I don't think it's a meaningful exercise to try and order the middle group. Liberal arts--which focuses on broad perspectives of learning and the world tends to align with liberal political perspectives. None of these listed have a strong religious background, though some have origins.

Mt. Holyoke is not in NY, it is in western Massachusetts.

Understood. But let's add to the list and just put an asterisk by the SLACs with limited # of merit aid.

You need to be careful with some of those. Swarthmore for example does something like 6 merit scholarships, 4 of which don't apply to this geography, so that leaves 2. And its already super selective so a kid would have to be really exceptional to get one of the two.
