I'd say they'd be a perfect Tossup group ever.

Most of them expand their extreme (and extraordinary) sporting ability from colleges and universities.
So the fact that they are educated, and young, they would probably lean Hillary.

I think Lochte remembers to vote, he'd probably vote Trump.

I think I remember hearing he already endorsed him for President months ago.

Disprotionately young, minority, female, and educated group. Very low proportion of working class white men.

I would assume any of them are probably Clinton unless they've made statements otherwise or are known to be pricks.

I think the males on the swim team are mostly White working class men.

I imagine Clinton, since those who travel a lot tend to get sick pretty quickly of having to explain why Trump is popular to non-Americans.

I can definitely identify with this. I was in Spain for a couple of weeks back in the spring, and I remember one of my acquaintances who lives there asked me to explain why Trump is a thing. At first I thought I could answer her pretty easily, but sooner or later it became a fairly long discussion. I never quite figured out how to explain the kind of mood the U.S. is in right now.

He might get "robbed" on the way to the polls.

Safe Dem, in fact probably at a greater percentage than any American state with only DC being safer

I think you guys are forgetting that athletes are highly religious on average than your non athlete. Maybe that might help the Republicans win some American Olympians?

Republican. Hard work rewarded with exorbitant tax bill for gold, silver, bronze medals. They'd vote for the party of economic freedom and liberty.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't Ryan Lochte a Ron Paul supporter in 2012? Cheesy

Lochte is the perfect Trump clone.  He lies/embellishes the story and he then escapes while his colleagues, i.e. the other swimmers, are stuck in Brazil with their passports taken away.  And his hairstyle is a joke.

Republicans win the shooting and dressage teams. Democrats sweep track and field.

I bet he's a racist too like Trump.
