Spongebob: Nickelodeon has confirmed he is gay so probably Biden

No, just LGBTIA. Assuming they respect Hillenburg's wishes, that means asexual.

For King of the Hill:

Hank: Generally Republican (he had a problem with Bush's handshake in 2004 IIRC), disgusted by everyone in 2016 and probably wound up Johnson or wrote in Kaisich, going Biden this year.
Bill: Joined the Sanders movement because he liked going to rallies and working on phonebanks with college students who he thought were his friends, voting Biden in hopes that they'll call him back.
Dale: Trump.
Boomhauer: No one knows.

Bumping for my new favorite show, Amphibia

Anne: Biden; generic uninformed young progressive, followed CDC guidelines for COVID
Marcy: Biden; young fandom type, well-read progressive technocrat, was taking precautions for COVID well before the CDC issued guidelines but ironically was the first to get it and gave it to everyone else
Sasha: Trump; edgelord who probably had a Nazbol gang phase, does it to be contrarian, refused to wear a mask and made fun of those who did, posted a white square on #blackouttuesday, participated in both the George Floyd protests and the Storming of the Capitol as an excuse to engage in property damage
Sprig: Biden; just followed along with Anne, wore his mask below his nose
Polly: Trump; participated in mask burnings and later stormed the capitol armed with her mace
Hop Pop: Trump; ancestrally Republican small farmer who doesn't like him but does so out of a family tradition going back to Lincoln, followed CDC guidelines but complained about them
Bessie: Hawkins; very well-informed for a beast of burden, supports animal personhood
Mayor Toadstool: Trump; corrupt Boss Hogg type
Grime: Trump; probably racist against the frogs, refused to cover his face when storming the capitol on principle despite Sasha's urging and got caught by the FBI
Maggie: Trump; racist against Thai-American Anne, probably playing it up as a closet case
Dr. Jan: Biden; #trustthescience
Terri: Biden; #trustthescience
King Andrias: Wrote in himself
Wally: Jorgensen; a true free spirit

I need to either finish watching or rewatch it someday. This all tracks tbh (though I haven't seen the season 2 finale or any of season 3).

I'm almost finished with season 3 myself! Make sure you avoid spoilers Cool

Rick and Morty, an analysis which requires a very high IQ

Rick: Trump; Viva Kennedy kid who gets disillusioned with US politics in the late '60s and early '70s, writes in some humorous protest votes whenever there's a war going on, really hates Bush but sees Gore and Kerry as the same, Paulbot in '08 and '12, Sanders in the primaries and Trump in the general in '16, anti-lockdown in '20, won't be voting Trump in '24 though
Morty: Biden; generic progressive Democrat early on but gets disillusioned and eventually sees US politics as insignificant like Rick, still cares enough in 2020 to vote Biden to get rid of Trump, may still have a soft spot for Obama ("President Curtis") as a person given their adventures together, follows CDC guidelines
Summer: Biden; generic progressive Democrat, follows CDC guidelines
Jerry: Trump; smug mediocre white male suburban centrist anti-bellwether Gore-Kerry-McCain-Romney-Clinton-Trump voter, complains about masks and wears his below his nose
Beth: Biden; voted Trump in 2016 because she wanted to be on Rick's side and the opposite of Jerry, but totally regrets it and starts working through her daddy issues by 2020
Birdperson: Hawkins; anti-imperialist revolutionary
Squanchcy: Jorgensen; ditto but doesn't seem as principled about it
Mr. Poopybutthole: Biden; anti-gun lib, was a college professor
Krombopulos Michael: Trump; pro-gun mercenary
Jessica: Biden; progressive Democrat early on and a motivating factor in Morty's own leanings, but just like Morty her outlook changed dramatically after thousands of years alone with her thoughts and probably won't care about voting in 2024
Planetina: Hawkins; her handlers had her vote straight-ticket Democrat until she was freed and became more radical, "humans are the real virus"

The Owl House, but season one because it aired in 2020

Luz: Biden; naive bi Dominican-American teen from Connecticut who's really into a fantasy franchise that anti-Trump millennials embarrassingly use for political comparisons, probably an anti-Biden revolutionary leftist by the finale
Eda: Trump; anti-lockdown libertarian despite being immunocompromised by her curse, small business owner on the run from big government, would probably equate the vaccine to the coven sigil she refuses
King: Trump; going through an alt-right phase and says COVID is simultaneously fake and a Chinese bioweapon, makes fun of masks and participates in mask burnings
Hooty: Trump; likes feeling included in the comment sections of pro-Trump Penstagram pages, thinks COVID can be solved with horse dewormer
Amity: Biden; rebelling against her Trump supporter mom
Willow: Biden; would probably be concerned about environmental issues because of her plant magic
Gus: Biden; dad is a journalist, has a thing for "exotic" humans but claims it's just because he's open-minded and likes to explore different cultures
Raine: Biden; non-binary romantic bard trying to subvert a theocracy from the inside
Vee: Biden; trying her best to fit in with human teens
Masha: Biden; non-binary, super into witchcraft, probably shops at Hot Topic
Camila: Trump; headcanon that Luz's dad was a firefighter at ground zero, got an aggressive cancer from it, and she's able to afford a two-story house in Connecticut as a single mom heading a small town veterinarian clinic from his Bush Bucks, wants her neurodivergent daughter to conform, probably a gun owner, praises Operation Warp Speed
Hunter: Trump; pre-deprogramming at least, groomed by an ultra-conservative theocrat to be a child soldier
Lilith: Trump; conflicted as an intellectual pro-lockdown wine aunt but with a fashy thing for demagogic strongmen- ultimately convinced by Hootcifer
Belos: Abstain; zero knowledge of anything that happened after the mid-1600s and doesn't care, Parliament will appoint him Witch Hunter General or bust, would think of Trump as an oafish degenerate and Biden as a filthy papist
Collector: Abstain; several hundred to several thousand year old iPad kid, will write-in Skibidi Toilet in 2024

For the criminally underrated 2020 cartoon Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, which was my lockdown show:

Kipo: Trump; fights a violent flamboyant ivory tower activist for a group her people had historically oppressed and a girlboss scientist who's developing a vaccine, builds a wall of death ivy to keep her enemies out, consults old religious women with Southern accents for guidance and believes in a quasi-religious eschatological prophecy that calls for her to violently smite her political opponents
Wolf: Trump; anti-vax, survivalist, hunts her food, believes the ideal basic unit of society is a wolf pack/family, racist
Benson: Trump; anti-vax, former fanatic child soldier in a race war, starts a small business with his partner that would have been negatively affected by the lockdown
Dave: Trump; anti-vax, flat Earther
Jamack: Jorgensen; anti-vax, motivated by rational self-interest, gradually develops a moral compass based on the non-aggression principle
Yumyan Hammerpaw: Trump; "Yumyan owns you all", bearded patriarch of a society of rough lumberjacks
Label: Trump; anti-vax, took the ironpill
Scarlemagne: Wrote in himself
Dr. Emilia: Biden; girlboss, develops a vaccine, tears down Kipo's wall, probably a TERF, cancelled her brother for what would equate to supporting Sanders

No particular version, but here's the classic Justice League roster:

Superman: Biden; probably voted Buttigieg in the primaries but liked Biden too as a Delawarean- true that Clark was a socialist rabble rouser when he first appeared, but he kinda became a New Dealer centrist pushover and stayed there ever since, probably still tends toward the left in his heart of hearts but that's overrided by his establishmentarian rule-following and personal animosity toward Trump as a journalist and a misfit illegal alien growing up in conservative Kansas
Batman: Biden; New Jerseyan old money law-and-order conservadem who helped the GCPD suppress BLM and Antifa
Wonder Woman: Hawkins; Diana's sort of the token left-winger of the League
Hal Jordan's Green Lantern: Biden; Californian neocon "the Republican Party left me" type, feuds with Sanders-Hawkins voter Green Arrow
Barry Allen's Flash: Trump; Midwestern police scientist whose arch nemesis is Zoom(er)
Aquaman: Hawkins; supports a Green New Deal
Martian Manhunter: Biden; Martian immigrant

Some Mario characters and Sonic, because why not. Tongue

Mario: Trump; about as stereotypical of an Obama-Trump voter as you could come, being an Italian-American Brooklynite small business owner- honestly imagine him being a gruffer, more middle-aged, kinda racist union man than Charles Martinet's Mickey Mouse impression- also a resentful anti-masker who would shout epithets across the street at people who wore masks
Luigi: Biden; the Ed Norton to Mario's Ralph Kramden in that he's more good-natured and probably more open-minded, also would be terrified of COVID
Princess Peach: Biden; snooty monarch who wouldn't like the way Trump comported himself at all, the Mushroom Kingdom seems pretty developed and would probably be pearl-clutchingly liberal
Princess Daisy: Trump; would admire Trump's uncouth and ruthless leadership style- Sarasaland seems like a backwards and decentralized mess and she seems like the kind of third-world conservative leader who liked Trump more
Bowser: Trump; same as Daisy in that he seems like a right-wing third-world dictator
Wario: Trump; greedy petite bourgeoisie owner of Warioware, Inc.- definitely extremely racist, misogynistic, etc., and probably Matt Walshy in that he has a weirdly underaged love interest (potentially two, Princess Shokora seemed awfully young)
Waluigi: West; would do something weird like voting Kanye West
Sonic: Biden; washed-up millennial who was an edgy environmentalist anarchist in the '90s but sold out long ago

Avatar: The Last Airbender

Aang: Biden; self-righteous liberal centrist, wants politics to be boring again, humanitarian, vegetarian, Buddhist-coded, closest analogue in US politics is Jimmy Carter in that his liberalism is religiously-based
Katara: Biden; archetypal mother hen liberal
Sokka: Trump; misogynist, loves meat, collects weapons, considers himself a warrior, would be in the pickup artist community
Toph: Trump; petty nobility, selectively bullies feminine traits, became a police chief
Zuko: Biden after his redemption arc; seems like he'd try to overcompensate for his past
Ozai: Wrote-in Liz Cheney; his whole megalomaniacal war of conquest and sociopathic rise to power was very much an allegory for the War on Terror as much as it was based on Imperial Japanese expansion
Azula: Wrote-in Liz Cheney; ditto, she's just Ozai's mini-me
Iroh: Biden; his whole enlightened secret society thing wouldn't jive with Trumpian conspiratorial thinking if nothing else, progressive in his own way but pretty committed to lesser evilism, as demonstrated through later criticism from the Red Lotus for being too hands-off with fixing the world
Suki: Biden; leader of a women's self defense class-turned-cult, grrl power, "it was her turn", et cetera
Ty Lee: Kanye West; apolitical airhead, thinks of elections as a game and wants to stand out and be different
Mai: Abstain; the flip-side of Ty Lee in that she's an intelligent Daria-esque doomer who understands the futility of US elections
Cabbage Guy: Trump; small-business owner who got successful, hates kids

The Legend of Korra

Korra: Trump; literally based on Gina Carano, best friends include a cop, a moron, a religious leader, and eccentric businesspeople, shouted "you're oppressing yourselves" at equalist protestors
Mako: Trump; ACAB includes Mako
Bolin: Biden; apolitical centrist funny guy archetype, gets henpecked by Opal into supporting Biden
Asami: Wrote-in Bill Weld; industrialist but hates Trump because she's the femme in her relationship, doesn't tell Korra though
Varrick: Trump; the aforementioned eccentric businessman who sells weapons to both sides of a war for his own gain, probably became the Trump of his world after President Raiko inevitably got landslided out of office for all the bs that happened to Republic City
Lin: Trump; ACAB includes Lin
Suyin: Biden; as stereotypical as a liberal elite can get
Tenzin: Biden; after Aang got lucky and pulled a new power out of his ass to defeat the Fire Lord without killing him, disproving everyone around him, it seems like the "enlightened centrism" thing went to his head and got imprinted on his wannabe son as a stodgy, codified, almost conservadem ideology- definitely a traditionalist, look at how many kids he has, but not entirely conservative
Bumi: Trump; the weird veteran uncle
Kya: Wrote in Marianne Williamson; might as well be Marianne Williamson
Amon: Biden; his whole thing where he's trying to restrict civil liberties in the name of equality and working with the bourgeoise and a fraternal organization to do it seems like a very Tea Party-style strawman of Obama era liberalism (makes me wonder where the creators were politically)
Tarrlok: Biden; ditto, maybe moreso
Unalaq: Wrote-in Mike Pence; millenarian nobleman sophisticate whose warmongering aims to bring on Armageddon, very much religious right-coded and much more of a fit for the '00s GOP (decisively not the crude proletarian QAnon style of millenarianism)
Zaheer: Abstain; the anarchist terrorist is only listed here for the sake of completion
Kuvira: Wrote-in Liz Cheney; originally I thought she was fascist-coded but she doesn't have their hysterical chest-beating style of politics, much more of a deliberate and plodding Bismarckian warmonger
