The Graduate-
Mrs. Robinson- Clinton
Benjamin Braddock- Sanders in primary, torn between Clinton/Stein/not voting in general
Mr. Robinson- Trump
Elaine- Sanders in primary, torn between Clinton/Stein/not voting in general, maybe slightly more pro-Clinton than Benjamin
Mr. Braddock- Trump
Mrs. Braddock- Seemed disengaged, so possibly a non-voter, but if she did likely would have voted for whoever her husband was


Here's an idea. Obviously all the West Wing main characters are partisan Democrats, but also ideologically pure saints, so which of the two would they support?

Everyone on The West Wing would support Clinton. The lower level people who might not have in theory (Donna, Charlie) were way too ideologically moderate to vote Sanders.

Gloria: Clinton  (A Woman, feminist, liberal but not that much, seems like it.)
Micheal: Sanders (Male, Egotistical, hippie, has anti-woman prejudices, will make anti-Hillary slurs, vote for green and never for Hillary.)

 Michael would have hated Trump so much that he would vote for Clinton in the end just to stop him. It's not like Carter was a huge leftist and he voted for him.

I'll do a few random ones I did last time for 2020

The Graduate

Mrs. Robinson- Biden/Bloomberg in primary, hates Trump and will vote for the Dem nominee
Benjamin- Sanders
Mr. Robinson- Trump
Elaine- Sanders or Warren
Mr. Braddock- Trump
Mrs. Braddock- Probably not overly political but would vote for whoever her husband did

All in the Family

Archie- Trump
Edith- Biden/Bloomberg, probably undecided if Sanders in general
Mike- Sanders
Gloria- Sanders or Warren

Phantom Thread

Reynolds- Conservative in UK, probably Biden/Bloomberg in US
Alma- Labour in UK, Sanders in US
Cyril- Conservative in UK, Biden/Bloomberg in US.


Mayberry

There weren't any black people in Mayberry for a reason, all Trumpers, except for Opie who goes off to college becomes a famous Hollywood director and leaves Mayberry far behind.


I could see Andy as a New Dealer and he had little flashes of social liberalism (laughing off suggestions that Helen should quit her job when they got married, exc) so he'd probably be for Biden/Bloomberg. Opie got into rock music and stuff as a young teen in the later episodes so I could see him developing liberal views. Hard to imagine Aunt Bee voting for Trump with "grab her by the pussy" and his personal life, too, not sure what he would have done. Most the general townspeaople (Barney, Floyd, Gomer, Goober) are probably Trumpers.

Two years old but there's no way Travis Bickle was going to live long enough to be involved in half the stuff being discussed there. Not to mention he seemed completely apolitical, he didn't even seem aware a presidential election was going on until Betsy tells him about it and he can't think of a single issue to talk about when he actually meets Palantine. Wanting to murder the thugs in his neighborhood is not an "issue". All he does is mindlessly drive around and hang out in porno theaters.
